Neglected in the dialogue is the fact that these shots came from TWO officers only. It is also not unusual for an officer to fire 16-7 rounds in that situation.
The "situation", by the way, was a man who had fired the weapon several different times, and that he had ammo with him for reloading.
Also missing from the posted dialogue was the fact that the deceased had discharged his gun several times.......completely ignored commands to drop his weapon and was crossing the street into the area that had many many "potential victims".
Just thought it might be important to know that also.
