Family of man killed by West Covina PD alleges excessive force

All oficers are well trained, and when a circumstance like this happens by attempting to grab an officers tactical belt, we have to take corrictive action by immediate arrest. Not excessive force with a firearm. We do carry spray. Firearm is the last option or if needed. Some officers do also carry taser gun(M26 and X26). They need to be calibrated depending whitch model and department. These officers made a horrible mistake and need to be force to resign their position. It does not make sence for both officers to fire 15 rounds a unarmed person. We also do take any chances. Being an officer is the most stressful job but the most rewarding one. My prayers go the victim's family and friends.

You obviously don't know the story or you would know that not one, but two tasers were used on this nut, to no avail. They only shot him when he got ahold of a baton and started BEATING an officer with it. If you would have followed this story from the beginning, you would know that one of the officers spent the night in the hospital. They both did the right thing and were within policy. They won't get fired and if any money is given to this lowlife's family, it will be because the city decided to settle. Not the department.

I can't wait to see your face when these officers get cleared. I can't believe they're on the hook for doing the right thing. How stupid are you? I'm so sure there are officers who just pick out a random loving, caring person with his life on the right track, who's going back to school, and just decide out of the blue to murder him for no reason. I bet that happens all the time. The reason they fired 15 shots is because apparently they didn't have 16 bullets. How do you morons manage to breathe on your own?
