He won't do that again. I am just glad for the officer that it is clear cut. Not much explaining to do..watch the video, self explanatory use of force.
Great job by the cop being very alert to this guy's intentions and getting the drop on him.

That suspect was under influence of something. He was off the rail.
Also, looks can be deceiving. Nut did not look like your typical killer. When you're a cop, you can trust no one you don't know, and only half of those you do.
looked like a old b movie bad acting as he died slow
but he did die and the LEO got to go home to his family
Well that escalated quickly.
Sometimes they escalate faster than that like waiting for him to walk up to the window before shooting. I have made thousands of car stops and its easy to get complacent. That guy getting out and then not following orders to stay in the car all the while hiding his right hand really put the officer on alert that something bad was about to happen.
