Feel free to bookmark this thread and come back when the verdict comes down in this case.
I'd put my money on the cop telling the guy to get out of the street and the guy charging the car and attacking the cop.
He was clearly already in a very agitated and riled up mood from choking and pushing the store clerk around.
In a struggle for the cops gun in through the car window, shot 1 goes off, knocking the subject backwards.
The cop exits the car and attempts to control the situation.
The subject charges the cop and in fear of his life the officer gets off a few more shots to stop the threat, including the one that went through the top of his head.
That shot leads me to believe that there was a physical altercation and the officer in the dark, by himself, with several of the subjects friends around, felt that his life was in danger.
The cop will be exonerated.
I will put money on it.
