Sure I believe this/s
Either way, cop needs to be fired. Like, even if it did happen the way the cops say, that means this cop let a 17 year old child take the cop’s gun and use it.
Correct, under the most gracious interpretation of these events, that officer is unfit to carry a gun.
Was my thought. I mean your gun supposed to be strapped down. And should be really hard for someone other then the user to take it if it is strapped.
I thought police holsters are suppose to be very good at preventing exactly this. Requiring a specific angle, that is only natural for the wearer, to unholster.
That leaves two possibilities. I don’t like either one. Either they’re not actually good at preventing that or the cop had the gun out of the holster
Edit: Third option: the whole story is a lie
The second one isn’t a huge shock to me. I heard a few days ago that at my daughter’s former middle school (so glad we got her out of there), the “resource officer,” (a cop) left his gun on the bathroom sink. A kid found it. Thankfully, he did the right thing and went straight to the office.
Amazingly, the cop was fired.
But this is the intelligence level you’re dealing with when it comes to cops.
I believe police holsters are required to have a button strap or some other type of retention feature to keep it in place.
wink
I read that and my brain just auto translated that to “Cop shoots unarmed girl in custody”. I need to stop reading about US cops, it’s making me cynical.
I’ll believe this story when I see a video of it.
“She fell on my bullets”
Yeah I recall another one like this not too long ago where, if I recall correctly, they claimed someone shot themselves inside a police cat while they were handcuffed.
Inside a police cat?
Car, probably
