Not just empty his clip, but also fatally wounded the person he was transporting at the time. He thought that the guy in the backseat, having already been patted down twice, handcuffed and detained; had a gun.

This was definitely a reasonable amount of anxiety for a state-sponsored bully to have /s

In the link it specifically states the person wasn't harmed (somehow). Unless there was a new development in the story this is false. ACAB and all that but we can't spread misinformation.

Either I'm misremembering or one of the things I've seen on it was wrong then. I watched this video earlier this week and I thought I remembered seeing body cam footage of them actually going to check on the guy after the shooting and the dude was dead in the backseat

That would be a cut together clip. Disinformation. I'm sorry you were subjected to it but in the case of the loud acorn the person detained was amazingly not physically harmed.

i definitely remember the dude not getting hit by even a single shot, at least significantly so.
