There's video of the incident looping on CNN now. Vid taken by wife. Cops keep yelling, 'Drop the gun'. She keeps telling them, 'he doesn't have a gun'.
So either she's wrong or the cops were wrong and planted the gun post shooting to cover stuff up.
K.I.S.S. He probably had a gun and it was in his hand.
Then the dead bastard should have complied with the commands and his ass would still be sucking air! Good shoot as far as I care..
