"Don't run! Put your hands up! Keep them where I can see them! Fxxk you!!" The officer swore outright.
But those Blacks obviously knew the game, didn't resist, raised their hands, and bolted with their heads down. The officer couldn't justifiably shoot them as they ran.
After all, the law stipulates that when the standard for firing isn't met and the suspect makes no resistance or threatening move, shooting rashly means taking personal responsibility. The line between administrative leave and being fired is very blurry.
It mainly depends on the media's leanings and whether your seniority is worth the union's effort to bail you out.
But the rookies and entry-level officers were still dazed. The seasoned officers would have fired already!!
Bang bang bang!!
"Shots fired! Shots fired!!" Officer Mig and the second-grade officers unleashed a barrage on the Blacks. But perhaps out of bad luck, they only managed to hit one in the butt.
