Go back and listen to the audio... There's a break between the 7th and 8th shot. There were 5 hits. 4 in the back and one in the ear. I think he didn't drop so the cop paused, raised his point of aim and took a head shot. Just listen to the audio again. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/04/0...black-mans-death.html?_r=0&referrer=
