Cop Shoots, Kills Unarmed Woman

Cop Shoots, Kills Unarmed Woman

A police detective shot and killed an unarmed woman in the streets of Brooklyn yesterday, after she crashed a stolen car and tried to flee the scene. The trouble started when two plainclothes narcotics officers spotted a gray Camry making a "wild" U-turn, running several lights, and then smashing head-on into a minivan. Police approached, and the driver hit one of them with the passenger door in an attempt to escape. When that failed, she slammed the car in reverse, the New York Times reports.

A police officer leaned in the driver's side window with a gun in one hand, trying to shift the car into park. The gun went off once, hitting the woman in the chest; she staggered out of the car. "She hollered, 'Call the ambulance! Please don't let me die,'" before collapsing, one witness tells the New York Post. Someone from the crowd rushed to cradle her, while others shouted, "Murderers!" at police. According to the Post the woman was 23-year-old Shantel Davis, who had eight prior arrests and was out on bail for attempted murder and other charges. The car was stolen June 5 in a carjacking. Police are investigating the shooting; sources say Davis may have grabbed for the gun before it went off. One state assemblyman called the incident questionable, saying officers "may have not acted with good judgment."

The car was stolen June 5 in a carjacking... Davis may have grabbed for the gun before it went off...

Whatever. Seems like this was a long time coming. Good riddance.

A vehicle classifies as a deadly weapon if it is used as such. Therefore, deadly force as a response is within the purview of the officers.

Are you comfortable defending this POS? Man or woman, when you're asking for it, you're asking for it.

Pick your stories better, Will. :nono:

I did pick a great story and I will defend an unarmed person from jackbooted thugs who only want to kill. :hatsoff:

A very sad story.

Often police officers and other administrators want to show that they have the power.

But fortunately most of the cops are not like that.

She wasn't unarmed. She was armed with a weapon more powerful than any handgun.

 

[StanScratch]

Ever been hit by a car, Will? It does not feel good.
She was going after the officers in her car with an intent to kill them. "Unarmed" is a word used quite ignorantly in this case.

Yup. You try running down a copper and you're going to get popped. They did the Lord's work that day.

I see Will Worm is in full-retard Asshat reelection mode.

Sad

These two are the only ones who see the story for what it is.

Trying to justify jackbooted thugs is wrong. :nono:

Also, she is black. So, racists! :tongue:

The guy in Miami who was eating another man's face was unarmed (and unclothed) I guess he shouldn't have been shot...

Trying to justify a crackhead trying to use a stolen vehicle as a weapon is absurd.

Labelling dedicated law enforcement officers as thug is defamation.

But the good news is, I'm sure that you were just as strident in your defense of Rodney King. That's very liberal of you. Good job Will. :thumbsup:

 

[Ace Boobtoucher]

Wow. The comments at the bottom of the original story are hilariously racist.

the pen?

 

[ThatRedWing]

Anytime that an officers sidearm is fired (outside of the firing range) there is a full investigation. Judging from the "facts" of this article, it looks like an accidental shooting. This officer could end up in some serious hot water even if it is deemed accidental. As far as the crackhead goes, good fucking riddance.

I believe he was crazy and might have lunged at the officer.

She was driving the car he came alone the side of the car. "Defemation" Nah. :tongue:

I am for human rights. It does not take that many officers to subdue someone. Liberal?

This is common sense. Police recruits need to have a decent IQ and they should be physically fit.

Wow. The comments at the bottom of the original story are hilariously racist.

Really?

the pen?

Pens can be deadly weapons. Just ask Joe Pesci.

Where's the cries for the BAN ON CARS when we need it? Or, a seven day "cooling off" period before you can purchase a car? :stir:

Liberals are inconsistent.

Conservatives are very consistent. Consistently full of shit.
