'Let her go! Let her go!' Fontana officer shoots armed man who put his partner in a headlock - SDF Chatter

> Seconds later, a shout rang out: “He’s got a gun!” Body cam. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb5BiJWg4_A&rco=1]

Yeah, I don’t think I’m gonna defend the guy who got shot here. According to the article he was a real piece of work, and it seems like he was a credible threat to the life of the officer he put in the headlock.

I don’t think the officers did anything wrong in this one. Broken clock twice a day and all that.

I agree. Although it is pretty interesting how quickly they were able to release the bodycam footage.
Well yeah, they didn’t have to go to the writers room to come up with a narrative, or dig through his rap sheet to see if he ever looked at a marijuana.
I forget what video it was where the cop pulls the old “oh you’re recording? So am I.” routine and the guy instantly responds “yeah, but my recordings don’t magically disappear” 😂
