wtf happened before the video started?

wtf? why did he pull a gun?

 

[223 Gunner]

Wow! What kind of idiot pulls a gun on Police Officers?

 

[SMiller]

Looks like he wanted to die "suicide by cop".

 

[wizardfitz]

Obviously not acting on all cylinders. Great that the officers are okay

Darwin Award!

+1 for the good guys. Glad they were on their toes. That look on his face right before he pulled the gun was a bit strange. It was a mix of "I'm gonna die in a hail of gunfire like Billy the Kid" and "these cops don't have a clue what I'm about to do, heh heh." Well, you lose, sucker. Glad the cops weren't hurt. Maybe what they pulled him out for was BS, probably not. My guess is he had a warrant out or some such. But resolve the issue with the fuzz and get back to your meal. No need to play stupid games. Good thing they had the foresight to get him out of the restaurant.

Maybe he found a rat in his cobb salad.

Like the situational awareness of the leading officer as he pushes the fork and knife to the back of the table as he walks out of the restaurant. Glad the good guys are safe.

Death by stupidity is all that can be said.

Yes, I saw that. He checked six at the same moment as well. He also managed to have the wherewithal to push the BG away so as not to take any of his partner's inbound traffic. Overall they seemed to me to operate well as a team and resolve the situation. Maybe some of the INGO PD can lend their expertise and offer some criticism, but I thought they did a really fine job.

Never know what's running through someone's mind and what a person will do. Good for the LEOs and prayers for what all will have to deal with.

It was a BB gun. Here's a video from the other cop's perspective

I'm not embedding until a mod weighs in. Technically, we're watching a guy die on YouTube.

Here's the article:

Cops very well-trained. Notice how he moves the cutlery while walking out, and watches the perp walk past. All happens very fast once outside.

That went from some idiot in a public restroom (he did something to bring the police, chances are it was idiotic) to "your life is in grave danger" really quick. LEOs: please break down what happened. The male officer shoved the bad guy putting him off-balance/couldn't make a good shot. Something tells me that wasn't accidental. This could have turned out much worse if they hadn't gained the advantage.

Oh geez, now he's even dumber than I thought.

I counted 12 shots, I think. Comparing the two videos, it seems to me he gets a lot of his rounds center of mass. She put most of hers at the BG's feet. Not that Im saying I could do better.

Apparently, from the second video, he was wanted in connection with a robbery.

a few min before he was killed he had allegedly tried to steal a case of beer

I have a guess, but Whocares? Whoever it is, he's definitely been shootered!
