These cops did a damn fine job on this one.

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.
Was the first shot to the leg/torso? It looked like the gun was low when the shot went off but I cant tell.
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

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.

Still. .... Good job on that one. ... she was about to get stabbed for sure
Yeah it was definitely a "legal" shoot. That woman is lucky the man didn't slit her throat.
