Cop hears an acorn hit his car, freaks out starts shooting up the neighborhood, cries, screams he’s hit and drops his pistol….he was allowed to resign

[Swirv]

Fool gave the whole neighborhood PTSD for nothing. He sounded like he was having a schizophrenic hallucination.

He'd have emptied out those 2 clips on any unfortunate breh passing by

Shoot up your own car like Prez in The Wire He'll probably get promoted too and get called a "hero"

 

[Uitomy]

shyt if that’s my neighborhood I’m suing the police station wtf

[jackswstd]

you don't think this man has a fukked up mind from being in life-threatening situations
I can't believe people are this dumb
just like people who go to jail or have been in war
That shyt fukks with your mind
Its like when T.I> had all them guns
someone shot his best friend in front of him and he bled out in his arm
hard to get over shyt like that

The muthafukker unloaded the clip from being hit by a gotdamn acorn. If he couldn’t tell the difference between the sound of a gunshot and an acorn, he shouldn’t be a police officer. If he’s an example of the class of police officer that’s allowed on the street, it doesn’t take much more than being able to pull the trigger to be one.

think bruh
its a reaction to past trauma
if you were in a situation with people shooting at you days before, you are going to be on edge

Man, this really isn't a comical thing at all, but I'll be damned if that combat roll at the beginning didn't take me all the fukking way out.

He really said "I feel weird but I'm ok"

I don't know what's worse: that he was utterly confused but the feeling of the spike and comedown from what was probably an adrenaline rush, or that a fukking ACORN really set him off like that.

 

[Fillerguy]

His BYTCH MADE AZZ could have killed some innocent people.

A straight up BYTCH!

Had he hit a bystander, they would've charged dude in the car

Cop resigns after mistaking falling acorn for gunshot, firing at unarmed suspect cuffed in patrol car​

A Florida cop resigned after opening fire on an unarmed black man who was handcuffed in his patrol car — because he confused the sound of an acorn hitting the vehicle with a muffled gunshot.
Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Deputy Jesse Hernandez handed in his badge in December following the Nov. 12 Fort Walton Beach incident, officials said Friday.
Sgt. Beth Roberts, who also opened fire, was exonerated in an internal investigation and remained on the job, according to police.
The suspect, Marquis Jackson, was luckily uninjured, but the “situation was traumatic” for him, police acknowledged.
The police-involved shooting was captured on Hernandez’s bodycam footage and released by the department.
The deputies had responded to a complaint from Jackson’s girlfriend, who alleged that the man had committed grand theft auto, threatened her and was in possession of multiple firearms and a silencer, according to police.

Jackson was then “detained, searched, handcuffed” and placed in the back of Hernandez’s car while deputies searched for the woman’s stolen car.
When Hernandez approached the right rear door to search the suspect again, he apparently mistook the sound of an acorn hitting the car for a gunshot and quickly reacted with potentially deadly force.
“Shots fired! Shots fired! Shots fired! Shots fired!” Hernandez exclaimed as he rolled on the ground to get behind the car before unleashing a barrage of shots at the back of his patrol vehicle.

“I’m hit! I’m hit!” he falsely stated as he lay on the ground and continued shooting, according to the footage.
Roberts then also “responded with gunshots towards the car as well in response to the perceived threat,” police said.
Investigators concluded that Hernandez was culpable for a “policy violation regarding excessive use of control to resistance,” but that Roberts’ “use of deadly force was objectively reasonable.”

Mag dumping and claiming to be hit, all for nothing. Wow! Glad the detainee was not hit.
