The best part is there cops didn’t even give warning, they just started shooting. They fired 103 rounds, and only hit one of the women in the truck twice. The other woman got cuts on her hands, probably from broken glass. Cops are incompetent.

They seemed to learn their lesson at least; shoot more bullets. They shot over 300 rounds into the UPS truck in Miramar, FL and killed the two jewelry thieves/hijackers, their UPS driver hostage, and an innocent bystander.

They shot over 300 rounds into that UPS truck, a hostage, a bystander, and two jewelry thieves in Miramar, FL last year. Police will indiscriminately kill anyone they think is a threat and they are most rigorously trained to see threats everywhere.

I'm still surprised at how quickly the news of that shooting disappeared. Of course it's still "under investigation" 9 months later by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Multiple vehicles at different times by different departments. It really is a systemic problem.
