I say this while freely admitting my background is not in Law Enforcement.
What would you say about a case like this:
A person wielding a gun fires at an officer, then runs into a blind alley.
When the officer follows, he throws down the gun and raises his hands, posing no threat to the officer.
Does the officer have a right to fire at that moment, even though he had been fired upon before?
Suppose the officer does fire and kills the guy. Should the officer be held in any way accountable?
