[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think police should risk their lives and careers for a pair of stolen sunglasses. They should have let him go.  If he had just assaulted someone that would be different.

I read that he reached for his waistband and that's when the cop shot him.  If that's true I think the cop will be exonerated.  The only position hands should be in when being chased and/or captured by police is in the air. No way of knowing who has a gun in their pocket these days. I'd assume everyone does.[/quote]

I totally agree with your first statement: police shouldn't risk their lives for a pair of stolen sunglasses. Ditto on car chases for non-violent offenses. Too many innocent people get killed that way.

We'll see whether or not the LEO who was fired will be exonerated. The police chief stated that officer did not follow proper protocol. I don't think the cops should have chased a sunglass thief/shoplifter into the weeds, even if he was known to have a record. That's just looking for trouble. If you know who he is, just pick him up later at him home. No need to put yourselves (LEOs) and anyone else in danger. [/quote]
