The Blendon Township, Ohio police department released bodycam footage of an officer-involved shooting that took the life of Ta’Kiya Young. Young was accused of shoplifting by an employee and tried to leave the scene. CNN’s Miguel Marquez reports.

Somehow this is the only country on earth where this seems to happen. When talking about shootings involving guns, okay, fine, the US is certainly an outlier there, but every country has cars and police.

This is murder.

    Police everywhere are trained to de-escalate. Its why they have voices, its why they have pepper spray, its why they have tazers, all options before it comes to shooting somebody. That Lady was given every chance there was, and it was her choice to attempt hitting a cop with her car. Zero sympathy

      Every chance there was… except for the other chances that you don’t think are appropriate for some reason. You don’t deescalate by pointing a gun at someone, yelling at them, or trying to force your way into their vehicle.

      Zero sympathy

      You’re a bad person.
