One of the first lessons I ever learned in the military is that there is no such thing as an accident with a firearm, only negligence.
Facts!
Negligence AND murder. Or attempted thereof
Army taught me "Keep your booger hook off the bang switch"
Well said
Wasn't the kid too far away for the taser to reach?
He literally shot a child IN THE BACK
we seen it
Like always 🤦
@@rasyaylike always? Such a juvenile naive comment. Please name 1000 times this has happened since you say it always happened. I’ll wait here……… hello???
A criminal child.
Two grown men using a taser on a 14 year old when he was already in cuffs is insane
Right poor boy😥
Them thinking they were going to catch him in a foot race is super wild.
Them thinking they were going to catch him in a foot race is super wild. He dipped even with a wound to his hip.
Only one hand was handcuffed. And he was resisting. Get your facts right...
1: he wasn't in Cuffs, he had 1 hand cuffed to nothing else ..
2: who tf resists arrest and tries to run over minor vandalism .. the lady got pictures of him being an assailant ..
Pulling the gun and firing was definitely wrong however, abide by the law and things like this won't happen ..
A PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED adult, attempted to murder a 14 year old child. There is no other option here. I was a peace officer for 25 years and a supervisor for 15 of those. This was inexcusable.
certain people feed off of death
Inexcusable is speaking lightly..
"Professionally trained" seems excessive...
Well, you were a Peace Officer, the caliber and training is totally different now in Law Enforcement. They stopped requiring the MMPI testing in the hiring process. That allows a lot of Narcissistic disordered personalities to get into the system that was once an special group able to judge good guy from bad guy and let the unimportant shit go to keep peace and safety and using the law to protect society rather than Uphold the Law to create an enemy of society, This cop should have asked for the kids contact info and located the legal guardians over a damn window and then went about his job instead of escalating the situation into deadly force. There was no reason to even touch the kid in the first place. Broken window, witness or not! Control, Fear and Revenue Generation is the desired outcome for policing now!
@@kemonoyama2084A big problem is the cyclical spirit of hate between the public and police. I’m from Chicago, CPD has wronged our citizens an unimaginable amount of times, and as such, there’s great disdain from the public. Good people that can change the force, lobby for better training, inspire a culture of justice and honesty? Those people don’t want to enter a career that puts “Public Enemy #1” on their back. Police reform is one tough egg to crack.
“A year and a half later and the police department hasn’t even started the disciplinary process.” Well we all know how this turns out…
who cares he's just a stupid colored, who will probably hurt someone eventually.

@@billybarrett5223can easily tell you ain’t been thru shit in your life lol.
@@kevina3136 no disrespect to your dad tho. I assume after he busted the sheriff he was next in line? Just hope he doesn’t go long enough to become the villain 😂
When you can’t comprehend whether or not you have a lethal weapon in your hands you shouldn’t be on duty. You’re a danger to yourself and others.
"Get your hands out of your pockets" (First thing kid does is reach into his pocket).
or stop acting like a criminal and maybe you'll stop being treated like one. Running away from cops is a good way to find trouble. Question is why so many are trying to find trouble like it's their job.
The initial stop was legit considering the RP identified the two as suspects who had damaged her property...the initial use of force was also justified taking the suspect's resistance to the arrest...EVERYTHING after that initial contact was illegal...The cop can't use deadly force simply because someone is fleeing their custody...especially with no overt threat to the public. This isn't the one to defend@@SeanTheEvans
That's like, totally your opinion, man.

@@SeanTheEvansthat’s not an opinion it’s the law
What is really a sign for how sick US American society is, is the fact, that while they do show the footage of a man shooting at a youngster - they beep the swearing. That's sick.
DIDNT CHARGE THE OFFICER FOR SHOOTING THAT 14 YEAR OLD?! what the hell bro. What in the actual hell is going on.
you Americans do realize if the officer was in any other country he would have been praised? Reason being in most other countries he had the right to do that. And when you have a fleeing suspect most the time you have your gun out 😂

@@dner75-xh9leyeah the cop was stupid, so stupid it radiates off him.
He tried to kill that 14 yr old boy, over a damn window. If you don't see something wrong with that, then something wrong with you.
@@dner75-xh9leWhat an original statement......Not! It's overused and normally by a FOOL!
@dner75-xh9le Who played stupid games, assuming you mean, the kid. Then why did the cop called it an accident/then denied "it wasn't me" if he was just giving a stupid prize for playing such a stupid game? I mean, if justified right? Funny you didn't have the guts to write this as a main comment on it's own .... with more eyes. You speak from a place of hate instead of sense; so you can't see just how ignorant & insensitive u sound coz U are blinded by said hate. What a sad existence.
If a cop ever starts talking to you and you're a minor, don't say anything except that you want your parents
yeah in this case the child would've to be detained, there was video of the child throwing rocks at that house and he was bullying the kid that was living in that house...
Same if you're an adult. They ask for ID, give it to them, but say nothing. They're NEVER questioning you to help, only to incriminate you.
@@dunhillsupramk3 You've got to be kidding. What kind of Ken or Karen are you? Dumbness personified.
Ask for a lawyer and comply.
Easy thing to say from the outside. But when put in a stressful situation like this, you don't always think logically or clearly. Especially not for a young mind of a 14-year-old.
Asking kids for ID is crazy
anything to fill the prison for politicans to get their bonuses, and those sweet fines
well I mean the officers dont know he is a kid until they ask for ID. what are they meant to do? never ask anyone for ID because they could possibly be a kid?
@@kregman6928 you can’t look at someone and know they are underage …? Says a lot about you
@@newdayt6102 that is an insane implication and shows the limit of your intelligence. just looking at this clip alone, that kid is bigger than both the cops on scene. my 16 year old cousin is 6 foot 1 and has a beard. you literally cannot tell someones age just by looking at them, or else IDs wouldnt be needed to enter clubs or buy alcohol. its easy to see sometimes but there are always outliers and this kid is really tall for a 14 year old
Always lawyer up
Wow the cop tried to make it seem like he didn't know it was his firearm after shooting the kid.
If you can't tell the difference between right/left and the difference between a taser and a gun...YOU HAVE ZERO BUSINESS "ENFORCING" THE LAW!
But...cops are human beings too tho 🤔 expecting them to react perfectly regardless of the circumstances is silly. One day you'll grow up and realize that. Maybe 😂
Facts 💯
Anyone can fire a taser with their weaker hands. The "point" (sorry had to do that) is to temporarily incapacitate a suspect proven to wreck a vehicle.
What was the reason for wrecking the vehicle anyway?
@@riiddisbuk2496This has nothing to do with my comment.
You brought up about telling the difference between tasers and guns.
And the best way to tell is to have a taser on the left side the way they had it so that even firing from the weaker hand won't be as consequential as firing a firearm. @@rose.g.
I used to have a friend that said he wanted to become a police officer to see what it feels like to shot somebody. Years later he kept to his word and became a police officer.
Bro is gonna play gta in real life
Turkey jizz
What's his score so far?
What a scary statement
Hes far from the only one. Cops don't become sociopaths. Sociopaths become cops.
There is no way in hell a officer mix up his gun with his taser. These officers need to be held accountable for their actions.
Sure it can. It’s acting out the way you train. When you get hit with a high stress event, you go into muscle memory mode. You do what you practice. I’m surprised he, the officer, was triggered by a teen breaking away and running from him. Usually it happens in a lethal encounter. It speaks to an overall lack of fitness and training to me.
@@Pomisher yeah
if nothing else, that officer should NEVER BE ALLOWED to have a gun again for the rest of his life

@@lucasgarcia8174👏👏
Five times the weight I would say he knew which gun he had
Literally ive gotten to the point where I can tell if my gun is loaded or empty
When you actually have adrenaline and not just training that weight isn't shit. The ISSUE here is the placement. Muscle memory for me says I reach on my chest on my chest. They shouldn't be close.
@@PAS2010Dyep, he clearly did it accidentally, that's why he fired one and was like *& 💩$. Kid should still get a payout but pretending otherwise is just sjw thinking.
Adrenalin is a hellava drug
@@Dem0Dule Means he was under trained. Police departments these days are over funded with their little toys (remember that one of the pieces of evidence used in the Kyle Rittenhouse case was drone footage which tells us that PD's can have drones that monitor you and you'd never know) and under trained when it comes to de-escalation and how to deal with situations in a way that doesn't involve violence.
Being minors, that cop should know he has no kind of business questioning them w/o the parents consent.
Correct.
100%
Hahaha that’s funny. You expect cops to know the law? Come on man!
Are you sure ? (Im not american in any mean) its make sense to me that you can question minor without their parent
wrong, the kid can deny to talk without parent present or he can talk for himself
my friend threw a rock at a house thought to be abandoned when i was 12 yall saying we deserved to be shot?
If the roles were reversed, the kid would be looking at 25 to life same day. We do not live in a lawful society.
Frrr
really?? you think running from the police is a good idea?? is this what you want to teach the children???
That doesn't even make sense.
Do you mean if the 14 year old were a police officer and shot some guy running away from him?
This would have never happened if he never resisted!! Comply if you didn't do anything wrong you'll be let go if not you'll make a lot of money in suing!!
@@dunhillsupramk3as a child, he didn’t know what was going on, especially after getting shot from an enforcement that he was taught that would protect him
How proud this department must be.
Unreal! Not only is that attempted murder. But that is negligence. Shooting towards homes. Jesus, how unhinged could you get.
I’m also sure the sights are drastically different on a Glock from a taser. He pulled his gun on purpose, carelessly discharged it then lied about it.
Of course he did. It's why he signed up. He's a sociopathic PoS.
And even if it were an accident, that wouldn't stop a non law enforcement member from being prosecuted. If I were to accidentally shoot a child, I would go to jail for reckless endangerment best case scenario, felony injury to a child worst case scenario.
The officer used a Taser X2. It has dual lasers to indicate where the top and bottom probe will land. If the cop actually used the "iron sights," it would be obvious that he was not using a Taser as stock Glock sights have a distinct white front sight and a white U rear sight. Tasers sights are one color (black or yellow). The cop is either lying or needs more training.
@@juicyfruit6311he was a sergeant, there’s 0 excuse for what happened and he needs to be charged.
@@juicyfruit6311 his taser was a x26p, it has one laser. his glock clearly has aftermarket sights of some brand and are not the stock glock sights. you don't know what you're talking about.

It gives them time to make up a story to lie together thank God it was recorded hopefully that doesn't ACCIDENTALLY disappear
Wow…. That was no accident, that was pure negligence! You are responsible for every bullet that comes out of that gun.
ok... the police department is responsible for training their officers properly
@@ArtscoStudioShorts and she’s still responsible for every bullet that comes out that gun lmao
The fact that the first thing they do once they get him is say they will tase him then when he runs as a natural response the first thing they do is open fire.This scares me immensely and I think he should get life in prison since using a deadly weapon like this is dangerous and can kill lives.
They didn't threaten to tase him until after he was refusing to place his hands behind his back.

Don't be alarmed folks. The police officers friends will conduct an investigation and find that the officer is even more of a hero than originally thought.
the kid was running around a neighborhood stealing stuff for multiple days and was not corroborative with officers at all this is a sad situation but guess what if you weren't robbing people and breaking house windows and then when you get caught just put your hands behind your back that kid had every opportunity to avoid being shot

Maybe cops should stop carrying the type of tasers that shoot, since they don’t know the difference.. second time I heard of something like this happening
A handgun is twice the weight if a taser. Anyone would know the difference instantly !
@@FinkNZRat If you watched the whole video you'd see that the taser is extremely similar to the gun (minus the barrel obviously) I'd chalk it up to poor training with the gun and taser and adrenaline.
@@daydaytwotimez8277 second time after millions of interactions per year with the public. I am sure that you have never made mistakes at your job, like forgetting to put french fries in the bag or something.
This is a known psychological phenomenon.
NASA and the aviation community have spent millions trying to find a solution, as have the medical community.
When we try to react under stress our brains sometimes perform a similar but different action than what you intended.
Hitting the gas instead of the brake for example.
The likelihood of this is higher if one of the actions has been practiced or performed more than another.
Tasers are far more expensive to practice with than firearms, which means few departments have the budget to train with them regularly.
This does not excuse the officer, and he should be charged with negligent wounding.
However unless there is additional evidence, attempted murder doesn’t fit what is shown in the video.
Negligence and incompetence due to poor department training is simply more likely than malice from an individual who knows his every action and word is being recorded by multiple cameras.
When a cop is fired it should be from ever being a cop anywhere.

That is not the discussion here. They had reasonable suspicion because of whatever the woman showed them on her phone. That's why he was placed under arrest. Everything else was justified. The kid is resisting and they also dont know how old he is. He is as tall as the cops are. You dont HAVE to know what you're being charged with before being placed in cuffs.
The only issue here is the shooting.
It's funny how the mix up never happens the other way.
The fact that 2 grown men could not subdue a 14 year old boy without shooting him should tell you everything you need to know. I hope the cop that shot him gets some kind of charges for this.

The grip of that glock is not even close to the same as the grip for the taser. Its many times heavier than a taser and on the complete opposite side. He absolutely knew what he was doing.
It really doesn't help that Axon stopped making yellow Tasers and now they're all black or gray.

@@theman-ox3cw The difference is still quite obvious. Without even looking anyone with half a brain could tell which one they have in their hand.
The color has nothing to do with it lol the cop knows what he did he has to defend himself
The other snakey cuck even turned away as soon as his clown buddy pulled out the strap so it wouldn't be caught on body cam. Something tells me they've done this type of shit before.
That sergeant should know that he does not have probable cause to arrest the young man for a minor property damage crime that he did not witness. He didn’t even have pc or ras to use a taser on him as he fled based on the totality of the circumstances. Cut the kid his check and leave him alone.
Even the lady that was complaining he broke her window was like “that has nothing to do with it”
He really can't be that stupid to say he mixed up his weapons. Hes just using that as an excuse so he doesn't g to jail and have the inmates turn him out
I'm thinking that's why they have qualified immunity. In jail, they'll be targeted. Which they should be. Rather than immunity, they should just place them in isolation.
Well, usually the standard operating procedure in this case is to lie and say you meant to shoot the kid because it looked like he reached for something.
Typically in the past, cops who say they didn't mean to shoot get charged. But in this case, the cop got the good ol' boy corrupt prosecutor and got saved.
I do think he really didn't mean to shoot the kid, but he should definitely have a felony on his record and never be allowed to own a gun or be a cop again.
No disciplinary action for two years though, that's the kind of shit that should have people burning down police stations.
“Inmates turn him out” - You do realize LEO’s are kept segregated from general population, right?
It really doesn't matter if he meant to shoot him with his gun. If he hadn't been aiming for him, even if he "thought" it was his taser, he wouldn't have hit him. If he's that incompetent, he doesn't need to be carrying a gun ever again.
Don’t understand how you mix up a taser with a gun there’s just no way
Officer asking 14 y ears old if they have IDs on them. Give me a break. Have some common sense. Where do they find these clowns?
They look far and deep to find these clowns the pin badges on nowdays!!!
They are well trained in clown school on asking children for IDs, but not on the difference in their lethal weapons. 🤣🪖🤣
They should’ve just told him the reason why he’s being questioning. Tell them about the window and show them the video. Then call their parents.
Not malicious, he's resisting, things get crazy quickly
Cop who used same excuse for killing a man and crying profusely said same thing and got reduced sentence. Are all cops going to use this excuse?

@@teru797 In what world is it okay to shoot any child for simply running away from police? You know how much dumb shit kids do that police chase them for? You want every kid shot for simply running away from cops cause they were door bell ditching?
I'm not on the minor's side these little brats do too much and get away with everything
Why is a 14 year old fighting and running from police ?
WOW THAT KID IS LUCKY TO BE ALIVE… I feel so bad for him.. the coo almost killed him over nothing.
Such a shame the thug made it.
He'll be back to looting before you know it!
@@SeanTheEvans by thug do you mean the unarmed kid?
@@mrbriceno3949by thug he means kid who thinks its fun to smash windows
You're the moron thinking this kid did nothing that contributed to them getting shot. Use your brain. You run you escalate and anything can happen after that. @@mrbriceno3949
FIRST OF ALL!! Hey used a taser while the other officer still trying to restrain with metal cuffs!? WTF!!?
That isn't uncommon. Other videos show suspects take the 5 second lightning ride while getting cuffed.
Its just laziness. Think of the type of person that gets the only job in the world its almost literally impossible to be fired from. They are obviously going to be lazy screw ups.
You think a lazy screw up is going to want to get in shape or practice some simple highschool level wrestling moves?
A lazy, welfare queen, tax leaching cop is not going to bother to explain to a 14 year old they are being detained, or bother to exert any physical effort to detain them when they have a perfectly good taser they can use.
Why do work when tazer do work?
ya he really looked like he was complying ... poor boy
Exactly! That doesn't seem professional to me. It looks like they just want him taken in regardless. Clean the street, if you know what I mean. Sad.
I hope y’all are joking…..plz
All could have been avoided by simply cooperating with the initial investigation, but their DNA won’t allow that.
Yep
At least there will be no more broken windows.
"You guys have ID on ya?"
*Kid goes to show ID*
"Keep your hands out of your pockets."
How can he show ID then?!? 🤔🤨🥴
I understand that people make mistakes especially when someone is ill trained and slow witted. But, what is truly concerning is that there should've been an immediate severe consequences to these mistake especially when they rise to the level of potentially lethal. This is why many have such mistrust in the cops. When regular citizens make mistakes, consequences are swift, when the shoe is on the other foot however... well we get this.
that officer needs to be charged and fired from the police department if you look at the video that officer came to the scene with intent on being an ahole to that boy because the color of his skin. then he apologies because he is sorry he got caught. that is just foul asf . kEEPING THAT OFFICER ON THE JOB JUST SHOWS THAT HIS COLLEGUES SUPPORT THAT TYPE OF BEHAVIOR.
What the officer did is really bad, I won't disagree with that. However, you cannot possibly ascertain what the officer's intent was or if it was racially charged. I'm not saying this doesn't happen or that you are wrong, nor am I saying you are right, simply that you cannot possibly know and it is such a lazy perspective to make "everything about race."
Racism will never end if we keep talking about it. All I saw was a poorly executed stop by a less than qualified police officer that resulted in a 14 year old kid getting shot. I didn't see racism nor can anyone know what the officer's intent or thoughts were.
Oooopsies, don't worry everyone, the officer has almost untouchable qualified immunity and will be protected by his union, his department, the DA and the Judiciary so everything will be fine for him.
He grabbed his firearm on purpose. He did not feel like running.
They all hate to get their uniforms messy.
a minnesota officer did the same thing and was sent to prison.
I can’t believe that two grown men can’t even handle a 14 year old kid
The county authorities that decided not to bring appropriate charges need to be investigated!
Shut up Bish
Waaaa cry more for the criminal BLACK thug
Damn, it's not so funny when the shoe is one the other foot, is it?
charge waddling woman for swatting the kid.
Yeah, That broken window isn't going to fix it's self
END QUALIFIED IMMUNITY AND COP'S WON'T BE SO SMUG & CALLOUS.
Send him to jail for life please.
No one is talking about the fact that he ran. Guys, don’t run from the police. Running away only puts you and others in danger
We need people in the government to actually be for ALL OF US CIVILIANS and against the corrupt dictators and terrorists in this country
I agree. These black hoodlum terrorists need more ass whoopins from the cops and more jail time. Right on ✊
Cops are scared of black kids now and I can’t even blame them
How are they corrupt dictators and terrorists? The police officers gonna answer for it. Who's doing the murdering raping, and felony collecting? Ohh
It will never happen because our WHOLE government is corrupt! Our forefathers made it pretty clear that when tyranny is law revolution is order
We also want to see all civilians to act like humans and to respect the law.
The fact that he lied to the EMS when they said the boul said one of yall shot him , then say it wasn’t me , he straight lied he did shoot that yb
Was that the body cam of the shooter though or one of the other cops there? And you have to give the guy some credit for not lying to the investigators.
Without bodycam, the officer could've lied and said anything. SMH.
The cop did lie he said he didn’t shoot anyone. This will be covered up
I now understand why British police no longer use guns but tazers
The cop got promoted. Thanks to the police union.
u serious?
Cops teaching the lessons their fathers didnt.
Yup. That's the problem. The unions. They need to be dismantled
And the criminal got paid.
That's one thing they need to do away with this the police Union and they need to make all police officers carry insurance instead of all the taxpayers paying out all these lawsuits they should have to pay out of their own insurance and then when it gets to the point that these a cop cannot get insurance cuz he's had too many claims that he should be let go and it certification should be taken away does that mean that's how many lawsuits he's had
There is no way that cop looked down the sights of his gun and thought he was shooting a taser. He needs prison time, and a lot of it.
He obviously wasn't looking down the sights.
@@NoName-np8kowasnt looking down the sights and still landed a perfect shot wow he has talent
@@youuucrackdat It looks like it was around 10ft between the two It's not hard to point shoot that close. Also, it wasn't a perfect shot the bullet hit his hip.
A taser isn't the same as a firearm. It has a different weight (and feel) in the shooter's hands. Whether he was using the sights or not, he knew what he had in his hands. Send him to prison.
I was 12 when I started my 8th grade year. I turned 13 in august my 8th grade year. This mf is high school age in 8th grade. Clearly, he was also taught to risk his life and safety JUST to resist arrest, and probably not to read and write. These kids are being pumped out just to become little Floyds.
Someone in the Army would be court martialed... pathetic
Seem to recall a similar incident some years back with an older officer using the same excuse. This cop must remember it too
It was an accident? Then he should have IMMEDIATELY realized the severity of his "mistake" and not tried to tase him again 30 seconds after SHOOTING him over a damn broken window. You have NO business even TOUCHING a weapon after that....
If the D.A. did file criminal charges against this officer then BOTH him and the officer should be charged with CRIMINAL abuse of authority.
nah man.... that whole "it was an accident" shtick was just to deflect from his severe misjudgement of the situation.... that discharge was definitely criminal negligence
Miles, what wait? Your comment isn't very clear about who and what it refers to.
