Washington Police Fatally Shoot a Man Who Threw Rocks at Them

YouTube Link - WARNING - Guy is Actually Killed on Camera


Look, the guy threw rocks at the cops, so you knew he was going to get fricked up, but damn dude, the end of the video shows him turning, putting his hands up and basically stopping his resistance to the arrest. And he's gunned down. I mean frick.


ETA: Another Video, Different Angle, Longer

ETA: Inquest Formed - Claim filed with City for $25M.

quote:

Police say Zambrano-Montes' threatening behavior led officers to open fire. The 35-year-old threw multiple rocks, hitting two officers, and refused to put down other stones. They say a stun gun failed to subdue him.

He had a run-in with Pasco police early last year, having been arrested for assault after throwing objects at officers and trying to grab an officer's pistol, court records show.

In three previous fatal police shootings in Pasco, prosecutors cleared officers with the Pasco Police Department and a sheriff's deputy who was working on a regional SWAT team.

One of the officers involved in Tuesday's shooting was a defendant in a federal civil-rights lawsuit the city settled in 2013 for $100,000, according to court records. The lawsuit claimed Pasco officers were inadequately trained in the use of force and how to respond to street confrontations.

Listen, I doubt the dude deserved to die. But what in the high frick makes him think throwing rocks at police officers was a good idea. I just have no sympathy for him. His family, sure. But not him. Sorry, not sorry.

You watched a different video ? Not justifying it but he certainly didn't "put his hands UP".

I am certainly not condoning cops shooting people, but how in the frick did this guy expect anything but a bad ending when he started throwing rocks at the cops?

Hmmm.... if I throw rocks at them, maybe they will only beat the shite out of me with a stick.

I can't really tell what's happening, it looks like a flamboyant man being chased and gunned down

Certainly looks like he's in the act of doing so at 19 seconds.

That's what you get for bringing rocks to a gun fight.

I'd actually be okay with it if they just popped the dude in the knee with an ASP, but jesus...

Not really, you can see him switching something in his hands. Which I can only assume is whatever he was throwing at the cops.


That seems excessive, I agree but we saw 20seconds of what happened.



That camera man took it in stride
