Video: Police Kill Armed Carjacking Suspect
Usually, when police are featured in the news, it is over one of their own violating the rights of the citizen they were attempting to detain (a frequent occurrence in the United States 🇺🇸, unfortunately).
However, here is a case where cops were able to stop an armed carjacking suspect who was armed with a revolver & entered a business with people inside.
The Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office earlier this week identified the man who was fatally shot as Benjamin Steven Woods, 41, of Prineville, Ore. [...]
After they secured the scene, deputies cut away Woods’ clothes and applied bandages and a tourniquet to his wounds. Medical personnel pronounced Woods dead. (The Colombian)
It is still unclear why the suspect decided to raise a gun to the police 👮🏾♂️ while uttering a mocking reply of “You’re gonna get shot.” That is when cops opened fire upon Woods.
The cops probably did not realize that Woods was already dead when he slumped over upon the floor, as they were still giving orders for the suspect not to move.
Aside from the suspect, no other civilians were harmed.
