Damn. Hard for me to see. But they say the cop on the groud shoots the guy with his own gun. Wow!

Agreed, that was hard to see. I might have given the guy a moments doubt but I could have lost my life. The officers followed their training and survived unharmed.
I still wish the guy had cooperated.

I think the cop may run into an issue with the fact that he disarmed the guy then shot him with his own gun.

Not defending the perps action but 15 rounds to handle the situation?

Pretty hard to justify a "fear for your life" when you've got the guys gun and he's face down on the ground with half a mag in his back already.....

First glance on the vid I was like that seems a bit much, but then broken up by frames you can see the guy with his belt gun and you can see he grabs for it. In other words, the vest cams that I think are a great idea show that the cops acted in the right here and a court would agree.

Could be a problem, unless the cops gun wasn't in the picture. Don't think he lost his sidearm. Just used what he had on hand? Wasn't the best tactical move. How'd the cop know this was a functional weapon, how many rounds were in it? Hell of a time to find out!

Yup, but the bad guy could have had another weapon? Ass wipe kept on running till he was dropped.
What's the actual rounds expended count? 15? I didn't count that many reports.

As would be most who've not dealt with such a situation first hand. I guess I just expected a level of restraint.....or at least a slower rate of fire.

LOL, that was no flatfoot cop on the beat. He must have been military before becoming a cop. I for one LOVE the clean up... Nothing to hide? doing nothing wrong? then COMPLY SCUMBAGS !!!! It's that FUCKING EASY. !!!!

Not the way I was trained. Fire until the threat stops, fire as many rounds as you can, center of mass!
Stop the threat, if it takes 15 rounds, so be it.

I would have to dig through training videos I had. But a few show how a cop has perp at gun point with his (perp) back to him, gun is in waist band, you would be surprised how fast it happens as perp turns to face LEO with gun and fires first, for many REASONS why it can be done against LEO. Plus he never needs to FULLY turn and face LEO to fire if he is trained perp....
