The other Officer is saying they were startled by a loud noise right before the shooting. Starting to sound more like an ND. Not good.
Whoa, I was expecting the firecracker defense (maybe a car backfire?). But it's not unheard of people throwing firecrackers at police to startle them. This guy is probably going to hooked for sir some type of manslaughter. Probably a little bit of jail time too.
