    Default Cop drops hostage taker with head shot

    warning, graphic and language



    At that short range I'm surprised that sight offset wasn't an issue. So either the cop is real good or real lucky. (the opening frame of the video circles the cop at the trunk of the car with a handgun, but I think it was the cop on the left with a rifle that took the shot ... of course its hard to tell from the video so I don't know).

    Heavy traffic moving both directions behind target as well. Must have been a stressful shot.

    Yeah, I don't envy that officer. Had it gone bad that would be a career ender.

    They're still waiting to see how many "outraged, citizens" the family can stir up, before any discipline action might be taken.

    The commentary by the camera operator pretty much sums it up.

    Maybe there will be a small but perceptible drop in robberies in that area.

    Statistically speaking there's a good chance that it will be more than a small drop. Most violent crimes are committed by an amazingly small percentage of the population.
