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?
I knew this was coming and it's why I worded it as I did; instead of saying "you forfeit your life".
If someone surrenders then the Officer should not fire. Did Brooks do that?
