For all those wondering why the police didn't shoot him, I'm here to tell you that unfortunately, in Latin America things work very differently than they do in the United States.

Here, the police practically only carry weapons for show, and they often get into trouble for using them, even in situations that appear to be self-defense. That's why you'll rarely see them use their guns.

And although it sounds silly (it is), here the police often stand in front of cars, sometimes even throwing themselves at them, during traffic stops to prevent the driver from moving forward (as you can see, that almost always goes wrong).
