frankly this looks to me like it was all planned and went down the way they intended. The barricaded road...when the vehicle headed towards the snow an officer dived in front of it to force them to head into deeper snow. Then there is the officer that steps out from the trees and shoots the fellow in the back. There is no real reason for that officer to be that far out off the road hiding in the trees unless it was to shoot at whoever would end up stuck in that snow.

This is appropriately deemed a Deadman’s Roadblock because there was no alternative course of travel and the Roadblock was placed at the end of a blind turn in which the driver could not see the roadblock with sufficient time to react and effect a stop before colliding with the components of the roadblock.
That's a good read. I figured as much, but didn't have any knowledge to back that up.Quote:

Not sure if they did in fact disarm him between the time of the shooting and the examination but this picture is certainly interesting.
What's so interesting. They would have pulled the gun before coroner. Was other shooting threads where it's covered I think where it was common to cuff suspects when shot. Unclear if it was only if they knew still alive for moment or just regardless.
Yeah, I glanced over the part where they say the body is on the stretcher. It makes sense they would remove his sidearm.Quote:

This thread is a first for me. I've probably typed out a dozen posts only to delete them.
