In reply to JGMan. The man was not driving. He explicitly decided NOT to drive, and stay at the parking lot, because he was intoxicated. That's not a reason for arrest. They shouldn't have been trying to arrest him in the first place, and there was no reason AT ALL to simply execute him in the parking lot.

In reply to Lee. Better yet: tell them you’re sorry to have bothered them, buy them a hotel room, 12 pack of beer, and condoms. Then wait for them to drive away and have a drunken head on collision with your family of five, killing them all. Then patch them up and let them go, no bail, if they don’t want to go to jair.

Frank, that idea of calling an Uber is brainless. 99.9% of the time when you comply with police it will go well with you. He was hardly a “good” father with domestic violence on a list of bad deeds done by this man.

Two wrongs don’t make a right. The suspect put everything into motion which proven fatal on his behalf. I think they could have shot him in the leg, but once he took the officers taser, the situation went from a misdemeanor to a felony. I have been arrest twice for DUI and even thought I was angry, I realize my behavior could have hurt or killed someone. Conversely, the role he braced led to the lost of his life. The State should not tolerate lawlessness. Ironically, if germs are not dealt with in its infancy it will grown into a disease. His values system and beliefs were reflected in his actions, which cause his death. In this case the shooting was justifiable for the safety of the Officer and other people that was in the area.

I think deadly force was not warranted. I also think that the subject should not have fought with the officers, but why couldn’t the officer just called an Uber and sent him home.

Heavy handed? They were as nice to the suspect as possible. The suspect assaulted them, stole the officer’s taser and then tried to take him while running away. The suspect could have taken the cop’s real gun and shot him to death if he successfully tased him and incapacitated him. The suspect is the one who escalated the whole situation.

What should the officers do when someone does not want to be arrested? Just say, OK, have a nice day and watch that person drive away impaired.

First I hope they destroy this officer …I HATE heavy handed jerk cops PERIOD. But having said that I just can’t for the life of me understand why this young man fled and even other than that why the HECK he would turn around and point (and fire?) the taser back at the cops???? What goes through someone’s head to do THAT to officers armed with deadly force?? Men you just punched to get away from? Now I want the cop prosecuted and utterly ruined by this but the victim? Sorry but I want him recognized as an utter MORON
