Yes, he was shot in the back. He turned, pointed the taser at the cop and as the cop took aim on him, he turned to run.
Suspect had a taser and was running towards people with children in the area who could have gotten hurt.
Yes, the cop did stand on his shoulder until he kicked the gun away from his reach. No way of knowing if the suspect would reach for it again.
I didnt see any video where a cop kicked him in the head. And I watched them all.
Bottom line. Cooperate and everyone goes home happy.

"Fake news as usual?"

When it was the DA that was the one that said it and the media simply reported...exactly what HE said?

And great point about other people being around and could have been hurt, even though absolutely nothing shows that he was..."running towards people with children in the area."

Which, since he was running away, the cops knew who he was, where he lived (because they had his driver's license) and had his car, makes even a stronger case...for just letting him run and pick him up later.

As for the video of Brooks being kicked (I don't recall anyone saying it was "in the head"), apparently you didn't watch ALL of the videos. Depending on what you may use for a news source...not surprising.

Prosecutor: Officer kicked Rayshard Brooks after shooting him twice in the back

Start around 4:00 on the first video.
