Cops gun down man for legally carrying firearm
quote:
The officer’s frantic orders lasted for a slow count of 3
and were immediately followed by the two gunshots, a momentary pause, and a
volley of several more shots. There was no pause or hesitation between the
commands and the shots. The first round struck Erik Scott in the heart, the
second hit his right thigh. As he collapsed to the ground, two other officers
fired 5 more shots into his back. Numerous witnesses reported that they saw
Scott turn and declare that he was a permit holder. Many said they could see
both of his hands and that he made no threatening move. All agreed that the
only gun they saw was the one in Scott’s waistband on his right hip.
