  1. Everyone knows how up to date the media is on everything…everyone's blaming the police for missing information but how do you know the media isn't holding back and blaming the police instead…you also know how accurate and trustworthy the media is.

  2. ROFL @ anyone shocked by this

  3. This police should be charged with murder what you think going to happen if run over person on a motorbike with a 5000 pound automobile

  4. Dont be a career felon, steal a motorcycle and produce a gun….its incredible how people still wanna protest this. What matters is the police report, the department spokesperson can mess up details, it happens…but that police report will have all of the pertinent information.

  5. Rammed? Looked more like a nudge. If you produce a gun and get shot that’s you’re fault

  6. Misdeameanors are the highjinx of any police for but still no reason to over react with violence police need less firepower like how much damage can pepper spray do

  7. Running out of stories to tell ? Where does it say police have to provide a statement before an investigation is done. It was a courtesy. Shame on you. Blowing up a false narrative for profit.

  8. just a lil minor detail, no biggie

  9. Yeah their liars no matter what color you are police just try to protect their own

  10. So isn't that attempted murder on the police, I know it would be if the suspect rammed the police car, or is it murder because then he shot him?

  11. If he is a criminal, I don't see nothing wrong!

  12. If it wasn't his bike, everyone will be glad he was killed.
    Doesn't look like the police story is true though. Is he really going to keep on stealing the bike with the cop car right there with its lights and engine on and a cop inside? Looks like these two knew each other from before, and this was retaliation for something earlier.

  13. Bunch of liars, they have to see the dashcam footage first….do they really think we're that stupid. Sad thing is they will get away with this over and over regardless. So apparently it was so early in the morning no one wanted to see the dashcam footage before making a statement about the incident. yeah right

  14. This officer,dare I call him that. Shouldn't have job Mon morning..!

  15. Police need to call a Nation Wide Strike for 3 months. Let's see what society does without them.
