This is outright disturbing. The policeman should have been able to take care of it, but shooting at paper targets once a year isn't enough practice.
I also think I saw him picking up the spent casings. Who does that in a combat situation?
That was probably his first combat situation so he probably fell back to muscle memory or his range behavior during the whole incident. That is fatal in a real life situation.
The moral of the story is cops need more practice! Blowing off 40 rounds a year isn't enough. I know a few people who burn through 10,000 rounds a year and they would probably take that guy out like it was nothing.
I am not criticising the cop. I am criticisng the department's lack of training for their finest.
What's your first thought about this video?
