SC cop killed teen with two shots to the back during weed bust

Quote:

The police chief, John Covington, said the officer felt threatened because Hammond drove right at him and fired his gun into the open driver’s side window, killing him.

The car was driven right at him, and he shot the guy through the driver's side window?

Is this something new?

Cars that can be driven sideways?

Mine will only go forward and reverse. :confused:

Yes. Car is driven sideways while driver has back to driver's side window.

Good shoot!

The autopsy confirms car was stationery when a teenager was shot twice in the back, a teenager apparently waiting for his date.

Because his date may or may not have been attempting to sell a small amount of a substance that is currently legal in 4 States and on its way to being completely legal.

Electric chair for this POS.

Picture this too. You are 19 years old in a car with your date and an unnamed, unidentified man approaches you with a drawn gun.

What are you going to do? Even if he drove towards the cop (which it looks like he didn't). Why wouldn't you do that? You're in a parking lot late at night, you have only been an adult for less than two years... You can't even legally drink and someone stranger (not a cop to your eyes) approaches you as if they are about to murder you (which is exactly what they did).

This is standard tactics? This is what the cops do?

And Zeke, fuck off.

Yeah, that's right. The kid must have had more options that Left, Right, Forward and Reverse.

I wonder how that steering works?

Do you enter any number between 0 and 359?

It looks like the kid had set a course for something like 220 degrees.

Man, with the crooks having technology like that it must really make a Cops job harder. :eek:

Not reporting the shooting is an admission of murder.

Are they going to arrest this cop on murder charges?

The officer who shot Hammond was in uniform, assisting an undercover narcotics investigation, and felt threatened when Hammond’s car was aimed at him, Covington said.

But how the fuck do you shoot someone in the back through the driver's side window when the car is aimed at you?

The cop wasn't scared of the moving car. The cop was pissed that the kid was trying to get away from a little marijuana bust. He gets sentenced to death for that!

Just like Encina was miffed that Bland got pissy with him.

You're not supposed to know about those!

That's classified top secret military weapons technology!:eek:
