LE shooting in Florida

ADVERTISEMENTS

Article here. If this had been a private citizen shooting, I suspect there'd be homicide charges, and if it'd been a CCW permit holder, the paper would probably be citing as an example of dangerous recklessness.

Retired firefighter is reported armed and suicidal. Officers knock on door and he opens it, apparently with one hand holding a cell phone, the other turning the knob, and a long arm tucked under his arm so as to free up both hands. Whereupon they shoot him in the head. And charge him with attempted murder, since a second officer took a shot on his shield. Then it turns out the second officer was shot by another officer. Oops.
