:iagree:

Plus he was the only cop to discharge his weapon. How many shots does it take to stop a man? Certainly not 10 and I can bet most of those shots were in the torso.
And again...

So you tell me how many shots does it take to "stop a threat" I've seen countless videos of criminals on every drug know to man in shoot outs with police and unless they were in a vehicle and not ftf it didn't take 10 shots to stop them.
You don't know that. I'm betting that you weren't there, so you have no idea what it took to stop the guy. The fact of the matter is, you nor anyone knows how many shots it takes to stop the threat until the threat is stopped. Here is a story of a man that was shot four times in the torso with a .45 while sitting on top of a policeman, beating on him, and still didn't stop until the fifth shot, which was to the head that stopped the threat.

Man's actions make no sense, unless high as a kite.
Yep, it was an odd incident all the way around. :headscratch
