Pity he only shot him in the left hand. A follow up in the left buttock would have been a nice touch! Still at least this happened in the US. If it had been Britain and in the unlikely event a copper was armed the perp would now be suing the cop for violating his human rights.....
It just enforces the old adage “Never take a bottle to a gun fight!”
The cop obviously needs more range time! I’ll bet that after the 16 y.o. cretin gets his mandatory wrist slap and exits the revolving door of justice, the next poor SOB won’t be as fortunate.
