"San Francisco police say they were under attack when they shot and killed a disabled man Wednesday night.
Officers say the incident started when they tried to pull over a suspect who had been described as armed and in a suspicious vehicle. They say the driver did not pull over, and instead fired on them three separate times during the pursuit. Police shot and killed the suspect in the city's Western Addition neighborhood just after 8pm.
The dead man was identified as Cammerin Boyd, 29, of Oakland. Boyd had two prosthetic legs, and some residents in the Western Addition say Boyd was trying to get out of the vehicle and surrender when he was shot."
He killed himself, he did so by reaching for a gun under the seat of his car this is after shooting at the cops a few times during the chase as noted above. I think officers used the proper force to ensure their own safety. I believe that is what happened, only in San Francisco can a common criminal go from that to some kind of hero for the fight against the injustices done by the police.
I know the SFPD arent saints and injustices have been done to people in SF but I dont think this is one of them.
