Police fatally shoot 6 yr. old during car chase

Or more like right at the conclusion of the chase apparently:

We don't have all the details yet, apparently the driver of the car was the father of the child and was also shot, but is alive. Other reports have mentioned they were trying to serve some warrant, but there are conflicting reports right now.

Typical bad dad, committing crimes with his kid in the car.

"The state police did not explain the reason for the chase, or the circumstances that caused the officers to shoot at the car." -snip

That's the important part. IF the father was shooting first or endangering the police, can't really blame them for shooting in self defense. Do hope it's not another case of cops overreacting and firing bullets when none were needed.

this is why i loath 24/7 network news. even when they have nothing to contribute to the story they spin their wheels and act like they do.

Yeah best to wait for more information before jumping to conclusions. Still sad that a child lost their life.

Everyone should jump to conclusions, like yall did with Michael Brown.

Though some have pointed out in the comments in that article that there are supposed to be protocols when dealing with car chases in terms of making sure if there are other passengers.

I don't know if that is a thing, though I do know car chases are usually discouraged.

So two of the officers involved are facing murder charges now. 2nd degree murder and attempted murder.

So apparently there were no warrants out and that was just the coroner who said that(which he shouldn't of been commenting on that aspect of the case anyways).

Cops also said the guy fired shots, but no firearm was found. It still seems unclear just why this chase took place. This is a strange story. Tragic obviously, but something just seems fishy.

Horrible news, interesting this is not national headline news being talked about on every network all day.

My guess is because the victims were white. So it does not fit the liberal agenda.

Well..yes true the kid was white.

It almost makes me wonder though if the cops thought this was someone different. Since the reaction seems weird..to pursue someone, even if they did run, but you chase them in a car and fire 5 shots.

Bingo. You can also rest assured that if the victims were black then the libs on this forum would have already declared the cop guilty of being a racist murdering bastard.

Silver lining, amirite?

You'd think with all the insanity going on at the moment the cops would chill with the beyond excessive use of force, but I guess not. I still don't understand how even a 'suspect' ramming an officer's vehicle can be justification for firing into it.

Obviously more facts will have to be released, but the shooting seems beyond questionable as of now.

It really seems less like one of those "cop just went apeshit" and almost like the cops were trying to cover something up. It also makes no sense to randomly ram a cop with a kid in the car.

The kid was clearly a muslim, terrorist, mexican, democrat, chinese, athiest, black, liberal, iranian, brown, gay, isis member.

Deserved to get shot.
