GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT

SkySpy, If you're going to use the word "spy" in your user name, then do us all the favor of getting your facts straight before you state them. I am a personal friend of this more than 20 year experienced police officer that you seem to think needs more training. I have heard the facts from one of the two people that was at the scene during this episode. Any experienced police officer knows that you do not shoot a fleeing perp that has thrown away his weapon. When the 16 year old male pointed and clicked, he was not stopped as the paper quoted. He was still running with his back to this policeman and once his gun misfired, he immediately threw it over a wall. So now this officer, had he been trigger happy like you and so many others seem to think he should, would be facing charges of shooting a fleeing, unarmed 16 year old male in the back. So please, keep your comments to yourself about things that you do not have all the facts on.
Also, a little advice. If you happen to get pulled over in the City of Fayetteville any time soon, be careful pulling out your wallet. Our "inexperienced" law enforcement just might mistake it for a gun and blow your brains out.....oh wait....you have to have a brain first!!!!

Read my response to denton 1.

I am glad that this cop did not lose his life. Every cops life is more valuable than a criminals. Thanks for clearing up the story for everyone. From the story it did sound like the punk turned around and aimed at your friend.
