A BART police officer struggling to handcuff a 22-year-old man stood up over the facedown Hayward resident and fired a single shot into his back while a handful of officers watched, a video taken by a train passenger apparently shows. [More]See the video here.
No wonder the Bay Area wants only the "Only Ones" to be armed.
And what the hell is with Chief Gary Gee "declined to identify the officer"?
FIVE DAYS AFTER THE SHOOTING...?
Do you think that would be an issue if one of us had shot a cuffed cop in the back? We deserve to know if there is anyone either so evil or so incompetent running loose among us simply as a matter of public safety.
You can tell Chief Gee that at: ggee@bart.gov
