    In the footage, Nyah Mway appears to point the replica handgun at police while he flees. The officers yell “gun,” and one police officer tackles and punches the teenager. As they are wrestling on the ground, another police officer fires a single shot.

    The police officers where wearing body armor, they were close enough to tackle the kid, the kid was on the ground being punched and instead of using a taser or holdstering their sidearm and helping the other cop by sitting on the kid they just pulled the trigger.

    There is a link to the another article about a mass shooting in Arkansas…

    Officers arrived less than three minutes from the time the first shot was fired, Hagar said. “When law enforcement arrived on scene, the suspect exited the store, and the officers redirected his attention towards them,” he said.

    “He immediately engaged in a firefight with law enforcement, where they were able to stop the threat,” Hagar said. Crime tape is placed near the scene of a overnight shooting in Methuen, Mass., early Sunday, June 16, 2024. Authorities say seven people were shot and wounded and an eighth was hurt while running away when gunfire erupted at a large gathering of young people.

    Posey was “treated for non-life-threatening injuries after exchanging gunfire with law enforcement” and taken to the Ouachita County Detention Center, state police said in a release.

    Guy armed with multiple firearms actively shooting at people is wounded in a shootout with multiple cops. Cop shoots kid that might have had a firearm but only after the kid was tackled and on the ground. Its kinda hard not to focus on the White Guy not being executed by police and the Not White Kid being executed by police.
