Friday...I was eating at Original Joes on Taylor with a group and we noticed a large amount of cop cars circling the area.  

 

A few minutes later we see a white vehicle drive onto the field with literally a dozen cop cars chasing and circling trying to contain the guy.  It looked straight out of a GTA video game.

 

95% of the people were smart ,  pulled over there car and didn't get involve.   

 

5%  decided to either try to drive closer to the situation and/or to get out of the car and run closer while video taping with a cell.  

 

We were a fair distance away but we did see them box him in and draw weapons on the guy.   The 5% of the people .. attempted to go closer to get a better cell phone vid!!!?   

 

Police are well trained and rarely will fire in a direction where innocent bystanders are located...  but the criminals are not quite as nice.     

 

For the love of god why are people this dumb?   

 

Somehow (maybe out of karma) I've been in the nearby area of 2 shootings in the year and both times a small amount of people have went towards the danger rather then trying to escape.

 

Are people just this dumb,  is it because everyone wants to copycat what they see in the news with police incidents and trying to get youtube hits,   do people just want to get hit with stray bullets?

 

Blows my mind....

 

 

 

 

They did not shoot him while he was driving. Police are not trained to do this as it's very dangerous.

There must be much more to this story and i hope it is investigated to the fullest by the special investigation unit so that closure can be achieved by all involved.

They will however shoot at a moving car of the car is moving at them.

They rarely will do that,more likely to jump out of the way.

For this incident he looked to be parked and they were going to smash the window and drag him out.

They end up shooting him which leads me to believe is that he grabbed for a gun. I've heard anything from a pellet gun to a an assault rifle.

It definitely looked like a five police star gta chase.

There were reports quoting a family member (an uncle?) saying he was very depressed by his girlfriend breaking up with him. With his behaviour when he got out of the car, I wouldn't be surprised if this was a suicide-by-cop situation.

Well the reports (unofficial of course)  was that he stole money from his girlfriend,  she caught him and then dumped him and after a few days of stewing he was on his way with a weapon to pay her a *visit*.     

Speculation for sure, but you wonder if there were some chemicals fueling the depression/rage/behaviour too when you see pictures of the guy.  You don't get biceps like that by doing curls.  Crappy situation for all involved.
