He was a Somali-American who, frightened, discharged his weapon outside of his vehicle. His partner also drew his weapon.

As the officers prepared to leave, Noor "entered 'Code Four' into the cruiser's computer, meaning the scene was safe".[23] Harrity would later indicate "that he was startled by a loud sound near the squad" and, just then, Damond approached the police car's driver-side window.[25] Harrity drew his weapon, but pointed it downward and did not fire.[26] Noor, however, fired once through the open window, fatally striking an unarmed and barefoot Damond in the abdomen.[23][25] The officers attempted CPR to no avail; Damond died 20 minutes later.[27] Harrity later told a supervisor "We both got spooked."[23]

You would think she would go away for just as long. Over 20 years experience as a trainer, and no justification to even use a taser let alone mistake a gun for a taser.

Seems there are two brands of justice.


Don't get me started on Philando Castile who was obeying an order and got shot. That cop walked.
