Re: NV: CHL holder shot by police

If he was shot through both pectorals and hit in the arm just above the elbow, that implies his hands (at least his left hand) were up.

Well, was he reaching for a 45, or trying to hold up his pants? Those cops better get their story straight and get their hands washed.
And one report says an officer claimed he was trying to pull a knife.

This one is going to be interesting to watch.

"LAS VEGAS -- An attorney who plans to challenge Sen. Harry Reid in 2010 claimed his recent arrest during a traffic stop in Las Vegas left him with a broken arm."

LOL... what? That's horrible journalism, and horrible writing. The facts of the incident might be in dispute, but there's no need to couch terms here: being shot while being arrested did leave him with a broken arm. There's no "claim" about it.

None of us have any idea what actually happened (I'd sure welcome some dash-cam footage!), so I won't comment on whether the arrest or use of force were justified. That was some horrible news writing, though.

Re: NV: CHL holder shot by police

Weird. I can't get any of the LVRJ pages about this case to load. All their other articles load just fine, but this one (and one where he's been charged) will only open a blank frame. All the ads and formatting are there, but there's no text.

Same result in both Firefox and Safari.
