Nice job. Even at point blank range that wasn't an easy shot making sure he didn't hit the hostage.

You guys eyes are better than mine. I couldn't see what was happening? Will say the cop stayed pretty cool considering the adrenaline dump.

Those cameras should make an easy case for a justified use of force.

Dude was about to stab the shit out of the woman he was holding hostage.

Was the first shot to the leg/torso? It looked like the gun was low when the shot went off but I cant tell.

The lady was hit in the arm. Nobody ever really questions why I left Florida for Colorado...

Perfect example to prove to the idiots out there who ask "why did the cop(s) fire X number of rounds?" If you think it's like a movie, one shot and done (not you like all of you, but the not-so-knowledgeable folks in the world), you really don't know much. If I were a DA, I'd call that a clean shoot. Still, tough decision to pull the trigger, no matter the urgency of the situation; not a matter to take lightly.

Yeah it was definitely a "legal" shoot. That woman is lucky the man didn't slit her throat.

I read the other day that Denver is getting those body cameras. I guess up to this point they don't even have car cams.

Nicely done by the officer. I just hope they didn't shoot any dogs

And the woman is saying "You didn't have to shoot him". Guess she was cool with getting stabbed. What a tool. Good shoot.

Senseless crap.

Hopefully that particular idiot didn't survive his police justified entry and exit wounds.

A LOT of departments don't. Dash cams aren't cheap.

Good shoot. Fort Collins is getting body cams, too. Interesting conversation with my hunting buddy, an FCPD cop. It's good for shoots like this, but very concerned about the invasion of privacy issue.

How long have cops been taking pictures of people when they pull them over?

Geed decision and shoot. All handguns are unreliable stoppers, so multiple shots are the norm.
