Then the second cop can shoot him. Notice in the video he was in close pursuit. Also, the cops sidearm far outranges the teaser. That cop should know what distance to keep in order to stay safe.
This is a bad shoot. They know who he is, have his car & possibly ID. He's not running for long.
Where is the accountability on the criminal?!? Good grief.
We will not have any police left in 5 years. Who would want to do that job for the pay, constant danger and now this added scrutiny?

Do you know beyond any doubt what that guy, who was clearly intoxicated and armed with a potentially deadly weapon, was going to do after he ran away? Are you certain he was no threat whatsoever to innocent bystanders and citizens in the area?

Jesus so do criminals have any accountability for resisting arrest?

You know that all cops are tased during their training, right?
All your what it's are just subjective conjecture.
Nothing gives the criminal the right to assault a cop. What gives the cop the right to shoot a suspect that is running away & pointing a less than lethal weapon at him?
I just think that the cop should know the effective range of his teaser & understands that if the suspect fires it then he has reduced its effectiveness. Notice in the video that the assailant turned away and runs away from the cop immediately after pointing the taser at him. That's when he is shot. After it looks like he discharged the taser and it no longer posed a threat.

No, but do you sincerely feel that he deserved to die for his actions?

What should the cops have done instead of shoot him?
I don’t like the shoot, btw.

Is death the sentence for resisting?

He clearly wasn’t shot for resisting arrest.

You mean the actions that involved him being under the influence of some major shite, driving a vehicle in that condition, passing out behind the wheel, and having the police CALLED on him? Do you mean his actions, on video, violently fighting multiple officers, taking more than one taser shot with not even a flinch, taking a taser from one of those officers, fleeing with the taser in an area where numerous innocent bystanders were present, and then again fighting with officers which led to his shooting? You mean those actions? Yeah, I'm perfectly okay with that.

Let him go and hope to God he doesn't kill some innocent person. Of course.

Should they have tased him?

That was his argument. Not mine.

So we should shoot people for being intoxicated, DUI, passing out behind the wheel... I know a lot of self righteous MFkrs that should be dead then.

Do you think they should have gone less-lethal and tried tasing him first?
