Video: San Francisco Police Shoot And Kill A Reportedly Unarmed Man
Extremely disturbing video of a 19-year-old man dying on the street after being shot by the San Francisco Police Department. The incident stemmed from a routine fare inspection on a San Francisco bus. The man fled and police pursued. Officers at the scene insist he was armed and fired on them, but a gun was never found. Multiple eyewitnesses say the young man was never armed and had his hands up at the time he was shot. Again, this video—depicting the man bleeding on the ground shortly after the fatal gunshot—is very graphic. More information here. (via globalgrind.com)
