I just wanted to post this here but you did the job so thanks.

Basically for those who cannot read French. An individual on a scooter ? with behind him another one, holding a AK47 (!), and were looking to shoot at cops, possibly to kill one or more.

This could have been a disaster, a massacre of cops.

Of course this isn’t terrorism but petty crimes or more like drug deal and organized crims. It’s a bit of a blurred line these days.

Conclusion: shoot at a cop, get killed instantly. Well done by the cop.

Marseille, Lyon. Grenoble, Paris burbs: their enemies are the police and their other rival gangs in drug deals.

I often think the crims, or terries, believe that Police have to wait to be shot at.

Fortunately this is an exert from the UK rules:

To prevent an immediate threat to life by shooting to stop the subject from carrying out their intended or threatened course of action. In most circumstances this is achieved by aiming to strike the central body mass (i.e. the torso).

So as long as the policeman, at that time, has a reasonable belief he or others are about to be shot at, they can shoot. This was backed up recently by a case, where crims were trying to get another crim out of a prison transport van. Police knew, and shot one dead. Only a replica gun was found in the car, back seat. Policeman cleared, he had been briefed that they did have guns, and would use them.

I just wish our police would off a few more of the lowlife scum, so their mum can say what a good upstanding drug dealer they were

Sickening video released by Philadelphia police shows a group of teens smile and record as they beat an elderly man to death with traffic cones. The man, identified by local TV station NBC 10 as James Lambert, was taken to the hospital early June 24 but died the following day from his head injuries, police said. (Cops said Lambert was 72 years old, while the local outlet reported he was 73.)

Two weeks later...This has only made it to the news July 7 with the reward for info. A gang of black kids like that on video and they haven't caught them by now.
Another liberal investigation underway.
