@@GhostRider-eq3kidoes your wifes boyfriend know you play with his computer?
I remember this. The 911 caller was charged as well. This was sad and stupid. To call 911 and spew bs is so wrong these days especially.
Was he charged, I saw the interview of that as well. Didn’t say anything about charges
why did them at dude take the gun out of the packaging if he’d planned to purchase it? can’t ring it up without the box anyhow? with as many shootings lately at Walmarts nationwide, it almost seems like a “unaliving by cop” I mean he knew what he was doing would cause a scene 💯
@@mfi-cf7spboot licker alert
That’s good to hear, that 911 caller is the person that screwed up the most.
Does anyone know the name of the caller or his interrogation??
The 911 caller should be charged as an accessory.
you don't know how the law works do you?
@@jm100368 I'm pretty sure the 911 caller was charged in this.
@@jm100368appparently you don’t either. The callers can def be charged. Unless you’re being oddly specific and honing in on the fact that the og comment said “accessory”. Not sure here.
@@jm100368 you don't either, as the caller was charged
This is why in Canada, airsoft guns are made with frosted plastic, so no one mistakes them for a real gun like this situation.
We have too much common sense in Canada. The USA can’t comprehend or accept it. Always excuses and changing the topic to knives and car crashes etc.
Airsoft guns always have an orange tip, it's an instant identifier for police to know it's not real
@@haaken-hj2ghpeople often paint the orange tip black

Who takes a toy rifle out of its box then walks around the store? C’mon man!
He was blameless. He took a realistic looking toy out of its box and walked around the store, then failed to comply. This is clearly 100% thr police fault😂
@@thepitpatrolthe way Americans think I honestly can't tell if this is satire 😂
@@pilly7006 it was satire. 😉
the corrupt 911 call is what caused his death
When I originally heard the story and saw the video, I thought it was a kid. A kid would do something like that, but a grown ass man? C'mon man!
oh man, you're going to get shredded for saying AK-15 lol. prepare yourself.
why
Why? Did you not know that AK-15s exist? You should try the search engine sometime.
@@sn1ffy85 lol. lots of things exist. they got lucky when they mixed up AR15 and AK47 and you know it. think my friend. AK15 is a pretty specific, obscure and rare weapon. think.
@@sn1ffy85 also, the cop says AR15. lol. use your brain before picking fights on the internet.
@@sn1ffy85keep coping little brainless sheep 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
Why the hell did he take the airsoft gun out of the box? How silly.
Total dick move. Who takes anything out of the packaging in a store?
Indeed
How do you know he took it out of the box himself? IT could have just been laying on the shelf. People open things in Wal-mart all the time and leave them laying out.
Make sure everything works n is good?
@@Smellslikegelfling They state he unboxed it in the video.
This was totally preventable. I have seen the interview with the 911 caller and i believe he intentionally misrepresented the facts. Watch the interview and decide for yourself.
Let me guess...it was a white person
Seemed like he wanted to feel important. "Look at me. I saved the Walmart. Blah blah blah."
@@Kaitylynn24yea he should have pulled a uvalde and did nothing. Dumazz do you even think?
I totally agree. Also know that if a civilian had shot this man in an identical situation, that civilian would be in prison awaiting his homicide trial.
This is literally the anatomy of an accident. A series of events that lead to a negative outcome. Had anyone of these events occurred differently, the outcome would never have happened.
I hope the 911 caller feels horrible and hopefully they got in trouble too.
Feel bad? The caller doesn't give a shit. Should be on trial for murder.
All they can do is take the call. The caller is the main problem in all of this. The deceased shouldn't have taken the airsoft out of the box. That doesn't make sense to me at all. But i don't think anyone would expect to basically be swatted at Walmart for it.
@@hydranmenace regardless of the mans actions, the caller said he was an active shooter and that hes reloading and even went as far as to say hes a veteran so that makes people believe he knows what hes talking about and what hes seeing, hes a credible witness and he blantantly lied. To say he's reloading would be to say he unloaded that gun first cause if not he'd say he's loading it now. No one else had a clue what was going on in the store., the man was surprised the police is there which are all signs that should have made him wonder why would he be surprised, why didn't anyone else hear an "assault rifle"? the cop with him was scary and trigger happy. He didn't give him multiple commands, he just shot off, twice too and then cuffed him while he was down which hes a corpse at this point. It was poor handling by the police but the caller should be charged with the very least of making a false police report which technically he called in a terroristic threat, a mass shooter is a terrorist and this man stood on the phone to keep giving updates and the updates were dead wrong and the police didnt even bother to investigate it, they shot first.
Agree. I'm sick of these people calling the police and nothing happens to them.
@@paz_3450 Oh yea you can say that again. Enough is enough with this Death by Karen bullshit. Karen*cide is far too common and must be stopped. They need to start prosecuting these Karens and Kens..
So the guy takes a realistic looking airsoft gun out of its box while still in the store and walks around with it, doesn’t comply with police and people are surprised he was shot?
I'm not surprised he got shot. That's the fucked up part.
I'll play along in your fantasy world..what law did the customer break? Who did he harm? threaten?
Police officers need to be held to higher standards than the general public. I am a Registered nurse and i expect to be held to a higher standard than the rest of society.
No shots were reported fired before the police arrived. They only said "drop the weapon" ? How come no additional dialogue given the lack of information upon arrival?
Legit questions.
@nomastomas002 you do stupid things you get stupid results. Period.
@@nomastomas002I don't blame the officer at all I blame the 911 caller who claimed it was an active shooter when no shots were fired the police officer done his job he went off what he was told... Americans are so weird you have multiple mass shootings and then this man proceeded to walk around a shop with what looks to be a real gun don't blame the police you should be blaming that society you hold yourself higher than they are the ones who have ruined it for everyone the fact anyone can get their hands on a gun so easily in America is the problem not the police officer in this instance
@pilly7006 i agree. To an extent. The officer interviewed did nothing wrong. I agree on that part.
As for the one who fired the 2 shots. It's probably not a coincidence that he was the officer using his "personal" AK. Obviously, he reacted too quickly. Yeah, I've only heard about the 911 caller.. he def got this whole incident in motion unfortunately
Why didn't someone call from dispatch call the Walmart security team? They should have been notified of the 911 report and could have verified through cameras what was going on. Seems weird that Walmart LP wasn't already watching this guy. The whole thing seems odd.
Especially since he removed it out of the packaging. That's his damn fault.
I'm sure it never occured to him that some bozo would mistake ot for a real gun. WHO would think that?! STUPID.@authortimsousa9384
(respectfully) You're making an assumption as to the competence of the walmart security team. In my area, they have a very specific reputation for not striving to meet basic professional standards of what is expected. They do "odd" and "weird" things that directly impact their level of reliability when it comes to direct observations
@@csmith9573 Former walmart employee here. I'd go as far as to say this is the truth in MOST walmarts.
Security officials are not police notify the police in a emergency instead of running to a minimum wage zombie who is going to do the same thing you are, call 911
The officer said when he left the scene to go to the hospital, he still thought the gun was a real AR-15? So the police officers didn't tell each other the gun was fake? What a disaster
Ak-15 is a real rifle
7.62 caliber
@@jaythom1985 I know but I was talking about AR
@@jaythom1985actually no it wasn't at the time this happened. The AK-15 WAS Developed and released to the world in 2016 , 2 years after this tragic incident ... so anyone who Said AK-15 in 2014 obviously has no clue about firearms and were just parroting things they heard from Hollyweird or other bs uneducated democrats who try to talk about firearms like they think they know wtf they're saying. Even this cop calling an AR-15 an assault rifle is WRONG !! But people only know what they're told if they don't do their own research then they're low information people and those are the most dangerous people there is.
@@jaythom1985It wasn't an AK- 15
I blame the caller which should be charged for false reporting, i blame him for removing the gun from the box. The cops for not using common sense, when entering the place and they saw no-one running and screaming, they should have knew there was nothing happening. Then find a employee and ask if they heard any gun shots?
The caller should be charged with murder.
I blame gun culture, u see the majority of ppl are sheep without much common sense. In America stupid has the right to bear arms...how many minutes has it been since the last public shooting ?
The cop also lied about the man holding the gun in a "ready position" and moving toward them aggressively. They totally caught him off guard and shot him before he had a chance to even understand what was going on.
@@Smellslikegelflinghe said a low ready. Which is literally just holding the gun with the muzzle pointing down. Seemed like you didn’t understand that part
@@Know-Bueno you have just 100% confirmed you didn’t pay attention to the video
I remember this situation.
It's sad. Everyone here made a mistake.
The guy should have never taken the thing out of the box, and he should have listened to the police orders.
The 911 called should be charged with falsifying a 911 report. There was obviously not an active shooter, just a black guy with a fake gun.
911 should have done more to verify the situation before calling in an active shooter.
The police shouldn't have been so trigger happy.
Just a shit situation all around.
911 caller was charged as well, luckily.
This is a really tragic case. I would normally agree with you that the victims race came into play when the cop decided to shoot.
But under these circumstances I think no matter what race the person holding the gun was that they would have been shot.
I can’t believe that ANYONE, in this day and age, would think that they could take an air soft weapon out of the packaging and CARRY it while pursuing the isles of Walmart and not appear as a threat.
And certainly not a black man. All of my friends are black or mixed race. All of them live in fear of something like this happening to one of their kids. Especially sons.
They drill into their heads how to act and respond to the police. I usually side with the victim when it comes to police shootings/ brutality.
But in this case fault can be placed on everyone including the victim. He was in Walmart carrying a gun and when approached by the police and ordered to drop the weapon he didn’t???
This whole case is tragic and terrifying. I’m sure everyone involved including the shoppers must suffer from some sort of trauma/mental issues because of this.
I’m not writing this because I’m victim blaming. I’m writing it because I don’t want to attend a funeral for a situation like this.
@@butterbeanqueen8148 completely agree with you.
@@butterbeanqueen8148 You are absolutely correct
"Waving a AK-15" This does exist, btw
It does, but the OP is as much of an expert in weapons, as any liberal media reporter.
Dude is on duty sitting at his friends house chatting about non work related items?? Thats fishy too.
Oh he can't call over the radio for a whole 3 seconds, another fishy topic.
Cops do that all the time, especially in smaller towns. They have a lot of downtime and will check in with their buddies. It's really not a big deal...if a call comes in, they leave.
I thought it was fishy that he switched guns with the other guy. Maybe that's protocol, but it sounds strange to me.
I would prefer him to do that instead of pulling over random people going 2mph over the speed limit
ikr. It has 'broke back mountain' vibes to it.
So he was retreating and he shot him. Whoever made that 911 call needs to be prosecuted as well
What's with coloring the shirts in the thumbnail? 😂
lol I didn’t even notice! Maybe to be more eye catching?
It appears that they do it with all the thumbnails lol
Not smart to walk around a store casually with a gun - real gun or toy gun
right? do they think we have the right to bear arms or something?
OH you mean only cops are allowed to walk around casually with a gun
@@clown134 nice straw man argument man, super huge brain on you
Exactly
The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
@@sashasandhuhe was still walking around in public with a fake gun unholstered. How he got it makes no difference really
Ah, the elusive "AK-15," the mysterious, rumored love child of the world's two most popular rifles and the deadliest object on planet earth. I thought it was just a myth! 😱
I've been trying to determine whether it was a mistake or the video was poking fun at the caller/public hysteria or something. Either way, it's hilarious 😂
😂🤣😂 the rumored love child 🤣😂🤣
I feel like even tho they were informed incorrectly, they still need to investigate once they arrive...people can be all in the same place and have 100 different stories of what happend! It is a shame, but i believe a lesson can be learned and examples can be made of this!
Wrll, the guy was told to put the weapon down more than once. He was told to get on the ground more than once. He didn't comply. Police would've investigated once the suspect was restrained. But they didn't have the chance to restrain as he wouldn't comply.
When your life can end in under 3 seconds, you don't have time to investigate every aspect of a gun. He didn't listen to commands. If cops waited to investigate just the gun before shooting, many lives could be lost.
They had info that it was a real gun, and the idiot that called 911 said he heard (did NOT see) the noise of a magazine going into the gun and a slide racking. On the video, you can see a lady with kids walking past the "armed man" without a care in the world. It is 100% the callers fault. He stands feet from the "gunman" but is never shot, nor is the gun pointed at him.
Like the officer said, everything has changed since columbine they no longer make a game plan, and depending on the PD staff, they might not have the manpower to stop & look at cameras. They have to engage immediately.
They enter the building and even tell the shoppers that they are the police force, that’s why people got scared and even had haeart attacks, I bet even the suspect or victim thought they were some sort of burglars . They just had training and couldn’t even mention that they are the police .
The caller should’ve faced some repercussions.
Absolutely he lied to get the police to respond more aggressively. The security video is 100% proof.
Why take it out of the box? 😩
I was wondering this too. It doesn't look good that he's walking around with it out in the open. I would be suspicious if I couldn't see what he was carrying (toy or not)
This is Confusing today!!Why did the caller say active shooter?These days Why? would you take a toy gun or something that looks like a real gun out?Sad but not the cops fault Everyone made mistakes just sad.
How do we know he took it out the box? I might have missed it. I see stuff out the boxes all the time at Walmart. Especially toys.
Well if mass shootings weren’t a daily event in this country people wouldn’t jump to conclusions so fast.
Yes walking around the store after taking a toy (realistic looking) rifle out of the box for no reason, is completely normal.
Exactly!
Please do not besmirch this hero of the victimhood Olympics
Pipe down nat cee

@@sashasandhuthat is what I had heard when this story first came out with actual walmart footage I might add!
This video made it seem like he removed it from the package and it clearly showed he did not
I mean it’s pretty dumb to walk around a store with any gun
No it's dumb not to sell it behind a separate counter where it has to be boxed or bagged. Don't you dare blame this young victim...
I walked around a store with every gun I ever bought, it seems like the best option lurking around or running would seem a little more suspicious. What do you suggest crawling?
@@bitbrace So you take guns out of the packaging and walk around a store with them in your hand? Try that at a gun store and see where it gets you
@@daevonanthony7962 Most of the guns I've bought didn't have a packaging on them, there is a just a price tag on the trigger gaurd for most long guns, handguns usually have a case
the narrator defies science by being able to inhale and exhale at the same time
It's an AI voice.
I’ve got no idea how you’ve come to this conclusion…can you explain what you mean?
@@bethoc3091 hard to explain but it’s not natural. Sounds like he’s taking air in at the same time the words come out
Lol😂
The computer isn’t breathing. It’s just replaying the prerecorded voice in order of the script.
This was the 2014 Beavercreek Walmart shooting and a judge said the caller could be prosecuted after viewing the stores video. Don't come to a conclusion from this police interview alone.
100% this was the 911 caller's fault
But damn why did he have to remove the gun from the box smh
Black people
Every single person in this situation acted like a moron. The caller for calling, the dumbass who took a gun (idc if it’s airsoft) out of a box in a store and walked around with it, and the police for shooting so quickly
This may end up getting answered (and if so I'll delete this), but does this cop know it wasn't an active shooter at the start of this interview? Or has he not found out yet? Because he's speaking like he feels confident he's the hero here, and he saved lives...
You are obviously a Biden voter and your pronouns are they/them. Of course, this police officer is a hero. My gaaaaawd!
I mean...put yourself in their shoes. This was a tragic, preventable situation. Both sides made mistakes. I absolutely cannot fathom removing a "gun" out of it's package (how was he going to pay for it without the box?) and just wandering around a public place with it. That's just...wild. That's like dropping your suitcase in the airport and yelling "Bomb!" ffs.
The officers may have been trained not to use less lethal means in very specific environments. It sounds like due to the caller's info, dispatch, and what was right there in front of them, they had a man with a gun in a very public location that did not follow their instructions.
Idk where you got him acting like a hero. He's just relating facts from his perspective.
@@bbjjbb61why not?
No. I’m pretty sure they did not know. The guy who called 911 told the dispatcher that he thought he was an active shooter
@@theSparkyWattswhy not what? That question was not a complete thought. Why not use less lethal against a deadly threat? I hope that’s not what you’re asking because that’s pretty damn self explanatory.
Walmart: Sells Guns.
Also Walmart: There is a man inside the store with a Gun.
Whoever called 911 needs to be charged
They have been charged 👍
Why in the flying f*uck would you remove an airsoft gun from the package in the store? Darwin award.
One of his two brain cells wasnt workin properly!!

@@slinginlead6647 The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
@@sashasandhu So!?! Does he not have enough common sense to think somebody could mistake it for a real gun?
I seen the interrogation of the dude who called 911
He was followi g him around while on the phone claiming his life was in danger. The victim walked by a mother and her 2 children they didn't feel threatened butvthe caller in fear for his life will following the man around the store claimed the family of 2 children and a mother should have been in fear for their life. It only takes a few knuckleheads to turn nothing into disaster.
As a police officer, he should know not to speak without an attorney. I will never understand why folks speak to them willingly they're not on yo side. Period
Stop talking piggy
Trueee
Nicole, that was the first thing I thought.
so we're just gonna pretend that walking around with a realistic looking gun in public is perfectly normal and fine?
Yeah in some states it is.
Yes. If it’s an open carry state.
Ppl walk around with real guns on their side in the Walmart I go to- it's perfectly legal. This guy literally picked this gun up off the shelf and was going to pay for it- if it's legal for them to sell- why should it be illegal for him to walk around with it? How else was he supposed to et it to the counter and pay for it? Are you going to arrest children for playing cops and robbers? I've seen kids with guns that looked real. Don't be silly- there's no justification for what this idiot cop did.
@@stoneysdead689 he didn't just pick it up off the shelf, he picked it up and removed it from all packaging so how was anyone supposed to know it was a fake airsoft gun? oh and then refused to drop it when confronted
also walking around with a holstered pistol isn't the same as walking around with a realistic looking automatic rifle in your arms
@@stankyyboi If the police operated the way you're saying they should- they would shoot and kill around 15-20 men a week at the Walmart here where I live- not for carrying toy guns- for carrying real guns, openly displayed on their person. Luckily, it's not how they operate- they wait until you actually threaten someone or try to harm someone before they start shooting. These cops made up their minds that there was a dangerous potential shooter in this building before they ever entered it- then proceeded to ignore every clue to the contrary- and there were many- like the fact that no one is screaming or running, and ppl are standing all around the guy in question as if nothing is going on. Why he didn't drop the gun when commanded to do so I don't know, but from what I understand he was shot within seconds of being told to do so- I think he was trying to process what the hell was going on and never dreamed they would just open fire. No matter how you slice it- an innocent person was killed so- there was a failure in the system somewhere- as badly as ppl like you want to pretend otherwise- you can't change that fact.
Ak15...lol
I’m wondering why he regularly hangs out at his buddy’s house while on duty.
Me too!
Definitely danced around that like he was hiding something.
To get paid overtime.
Where’s the body cam?
I noticed they keep saying AR15 and you keep saying AK15. Just trying to clear up any confusion since the AK and the AR are very different rifle platforms
erm.. why would he remove it from the packaging, the packaging has the bar code on it?
Was he planning to do something with an imitation?
Its been done before. Just wondering because it is the only question in my head right now.
You are exactly right!
We all know exactly what he was going to try and do with it.
The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
@@SoulforSale The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
@@sashasandhu wow, just a question based on the video, maybe take that up with the creator not me!
Not the AK-15 with the pew-pew attachment… 😂
Wtf people, make sure it’s a gun if you’re gonna call 9-1-1!
Your best episode
Bad video title, as usual.
But……. The cops didn’t get in trouble??? “Both were cleared and returned to active duty” I’m confused by the choice in title in so many ways
Doesn't an "active shooter" mean that someone is actively shooting??? That would mean you're going to hear bullets firing, flying about and hitting things, people running & shouting, that kind of thing. None of that was occurring so...
“A far cry from what witnesses described”. The dude was carrying a gun openly and didn’t comply with police. It’s exactly what was described
i don’t see why ppl don’t comply even if they’re innocent but everything could’ve been handled so differently
TBH, sometimes the officers are all screaming different things at the same time and it's confusing for me just watching in a video. I imagine it's probably far more confusing and shocking in person.
It appears they engaged, yelled commands and killed him within seconds. He didn't really have a chance to process what was happening before being shot.
@@ClearwaterKB I 100% agree with you!
There’s pretty much no situation that cops can’t make worse.
I hope the 911 caller feels partly responsible, as he should, for this man’s death and apologizes to the man’s family.
There are a lot of situations cops make better also.
I am no fan of the police, but why does the narrator act like walking around a Walmart with a rifle that looks identical to an AR-15, is just harmless and “minding your own business?”
Im sorry but you cannot say he was oblivious to his actions..... you do not take a gun out of its packaging and casually wave it around the store and not expect police to show up. So this non-sense of he had no idea what was going on, is absolutely ludacris
Yeah, it’s totally normal to open a product, remove it from the packing then walk around with it.
Have you considered the fact that he is black?
The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
Those AK15's are super rare. I love when people describe guns and know nothing about them, it may as well been a grenade propelled rocket launcher.
What is rare about it?
They don't exist@@thepitpatrol
HE DID NOT UNBOX THE F****** TOY AIR RIFLE!!!!!!!!
Cops show up and kill two people. The dispatcher who said it was a confirmed active shooting incident should be charged with these deaths. The caller should be liable. As well as the cops.
Why wouldn’t the man exclaim it’s a toy and not loaded? So this all around was confusing whether the 911 operator gave the wrong info or not. They all made fatal mistakes but the cops are trusting info fed to them.
Why take the airsoft gun out of the box? And why not just drop it when the cops tell you to drop it?
These cops are clueless.
Why would someone call and make false reports. Idiots charge the caller with murder
Did you see the video of the actual shooting? The police shot him on sight. He didn't even have time to realize what was going on since he was on the phone, and he definitely didn't make any threatening moves. You should watch it before you judge.
Because he's an idiot. Only an idiot would refuse to comply when they have a bunch of guns pointed at them.
@Smellslikegelfling why would he take it out the box and carry it around? Anyone would know what that looks like
I saw interview of customer who called on the guy. He wanted to play hero and made it seem so dramatic in comparison. Wish they’d charge caller with something. He thought it was so cool. Guy couldn’t even tell the difference between a toy pew pew and a regular.
This is what happens when you DONT do what you're told by police officers. When told to drop a gun, don't run off in rebellion.
Why would someone get the gun out of the box in the store? You can’t even tell the difference sometimes between an airsoft gun and a real gun. Especially with everything going on why would ANYONE be carrying even a fake gun through a store. I have not watched the entire video yet but if you yell fire in a movie theater but say oh it was a joke you still get in trouble. If you are carrying a fake gun through a movie theater even if you’re not making demands it’s still going to scare people. Everyone acts like it’s police targeting black people but if you’re doing some dumb shit then it’s your fault… this was unfortunate but why do something stupid like this?
Airsoft Guns have a bright Neon Orange tip on the end of the barrel, so that AirSoft guns aren't mistaken for a real Gun.
What are you even talking about?
Why not watch the whole video before chiming in
The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
There is still no reason for someone to be carrying a gun even if it's fake through store with customers. I'm not saying the cops shouldn't have responded differently but I'm saying there is literally NO reason for him to be carrying it though an isle... Put it in a cart or leave it where you found it until you are ready to check out with it... People get shot because they are carrying around what looks like guns... If he would've acted like a normal human being and not being a weirdo carrying it with him through the isles in a tactical way they wouldn't have shot him.@@hime273

Allow a cop to get shot just because it might be fake... Noooo that's not how it works.@@anthonyskata
Let’s not walk around in public with guns , let alone a rifle ( real or fake)
Kyle Rittenhouse lived and he had a real one shooting.
its just about how the authorites respond , i call it poor training fake or not boy should of never died if training from both police and wal mart was to standard...not perfect just standard with commmunication ,,, different outcome and a family aint hurt for life.
13:42 - So cop is just lying at this point: Crafting a narrative that he "feared for his life" from a pellet gun.
Maybe when you came in the store and shoppers had zero idea that there was an "active shooter" then there should have been a reassessment, but... Noooooo, charge ahead with ignorance and empty bravado - ending a young man's life.
Neither fit to protect nor serve.
He didn't know it was an airsoft.
I’m just confused on 2 things… first is why would the guy take the gun out the box to buy it? Second how did they recieve an active shooter call and it was never gun shots on the phone with dispatch, and everything is peaceful and normal when they got there…..
If you take a gun out of the box and walk around the store what do you expect to happen? That would be terrifying to see especially after all these shootings, my head is constantly on a swivel. That was super irresponsible of the victim to do.
Absolutely, the victim is the cause of this.
Wow. What did he expect to happen? Maybe not get KILLED for commiting no crime? Absolutely no comment on the hyper aggressive "trained" cops who saw zero indication that the man was threatening anyone or that anything the 911 caller said about an active shooter was true? Disgusting.
Terrifying to see maybe but how did the caller come up with the gun being point at children and waving it around????
@@sendachimptospacethe caller should be charged with murder
@@WashBearfrland being loaded. The caller needs to be charged with murder
"Shocked" While refusing to drop the airsoft gun thay he removed from the packaging. Amazing!
First thought would have been,”a black mass shooter?”
It was a full gown adult?! I thought it was a dumb kid being a kid, why would an adult walk around with the gun like that?
Was the caller charged ? I hope so smh 🤦🏽♀️
Yea, I'm not understanding why a person with a military backround, would embellish the situation. Especially given the current climate of recent mass shootings.
@@yettiluch1 I feel like they knew they knew what the outcome would be and if this person with a military background couldn’t see that it was not a real weapon is a problem . None of the callers story seems to make sense which leads me to think it was done on purpose to cause the death of the innocent person.
@@sweetcakes1767 honestly, if he isn't charged, i think the family of the deceased, should file a civil suit against the caller. If they can find out who he was of course. Terrible tragedy all the way around. On a side note, you sure do have a pretty smile. 🙂
@@yettiluch1 I agree and from my understanding they have a lot more access to information regarding 911 calls than they lead the public to believe.
Well thank you very much ! 🙂
From what I last heard, the caller was not charged. His interview with the cops that I saw was a joke. The cops were not questioning any of the inconsistencies of his story.
I would say Walmart has a comparable amount of culpability as the 911 caller in this situation for multiple reasons
1) they left an unboxed realistic looking toy gun unboxed on a shelf
2) those toys should be behind a counter, locked and properly tracked. Make them pay for it at the counter and then bag it just like they do with electronics at some stores. A young child just as easily could have picked up that toy rifle
Left unboxed? They said the guy took it out of the box himself.
Carrying An Ak 15 😂that must be a new model
I was taught at a young age to not even wave toy gums around because this exact thing might happen
It's weird hearing a police officer call a gun an assault rifle. That's only used in video games, and police aren't issues machine guns.
Cops are issued assault rifles in the US
@@stu.chainz AR=ArmaLite Rifle not assault rifle
@luccy3x226 yeah, we get that point. It's a manufacturer name. Just like monkey wrench, crescent wrench, calling all sodas coke, etc.
AR has now become synonymous with assault rifle. It's not going to change. We will always use AR15 as a placeholder name for all sporting semi automatic magazine fed rifles with that classic M16 profile
@@stu.chainz It's a cute excuse gun nuts like to use: "hurr durr an assault rifle doesn't exist" when everyone knows exactly what they mean.
@@TopherGrant I’m trying to help stu.chainz. And just because everyone calls soda coke don’t make it right. A sprite isn’t a coke, an AR isn’t an assault rifle
First off, how was he gonna pay for it if he left the box with the barcode on it behind and did he not comply n make a sudden movement or was he trying to lower the gun when he was shot? I would have to see the cctv to decide. Either way, there was no legit reason to unbox it in the store.
Maybe it had already been opened by another customer. Use your head and don't ignorantly rush to judgment
Unless you're going to steal it
This is the only time I heard about the suspect taking it out of the box himself. I've seen many videos and read articles and no one knew why it wasn't boxed. I would like to know where this info came from.
The cops came in and yelled at the guy over and over like they do. Startled the guy because he was on the phone. The guy didn't have a chance to even know what was going on. The cop just shot.
So you're trying to justify this?
@@SoulforSaleHe wasn't stealing anyhting you racist pos.
To be clear no one has ever been hurt by an “AK-15” because there is no such thing.
The 911 caller didn’t do anything wrong unless you can show he was lying. He said black male, he said ar 15 style rifle, he said walking around pointing it at people, he said in the pet department, all of those statements were 100 percent true and correct.
Its about time theres some sort of accountability, but this is a one off, this very rarely ever happens! (Cops being held accountable for their despicable acts)
I think this is an awful but lawful situation. The cops were going off what dispatch relayed to them. Also (and i know he was shooting) in an active shooter situation the police do not need to stop and identify themselves. Cops arriving on any scene go by the totality of circumstances. Plus the dude went for the gun again. So to preserve the life of the shoppers they took action. Lawful but awful.
Accountability is happening more and more thanks to police cams =]
Even with cameras police are not held accountable. It's very very rare that they are held to the same standards as us citizens they are paid to protect.
They should have locked it up with the Dove body wash, laundry detergents, and deodorants
Wait a minute…. Did homie call the pellet gun an “AK-15”??? Wtf is that my boi??! 😂😂🤣
That 911 caller should be held responsible.
Sadly the officers were going off of false information. I cannot say anyone else would have acted differently when told there is an active shooter threatening innocent civilians. The 911 caller should be charged with SOMETHING. I feel so sorry for the family that lost this young man for nothing.
You are giving way too much leeway. They were told there was an active shooter yet showed up to a location where no shots have been reported no one was panicking. Caused The panic themselves and shot in innocent man. Then proceeded the lie about it.
I live 10 min from this location. There was also another shooting at this very same Walmart about a month ago.
Arrest the caller
They murdered an unarmed man and get to return to duty without any punishment... gross world we live in
Everytime i go buy a BB gun from Walmart, i always take it outta the box before purchasing and walk around the store with it. Once the cops show up and tell me to put it down, i don't.
You are only allowed to do this if you are a member of the privileged 13%
The rifle was already unboxed! He found it on a shelf with NO packaging!! Do some research before you spew nonsense!!!
@sashasandhu that's laughable. Folks will bend over forward and backward to defend these jackbooted thugs
If someone was waving a gun at kids wouldn’t there have been some panic in the store. They didn’t properly asses this situation and then chose deadly force as the remedy. Damn it sucks to see another young man lose his life needlessly 😔☹️
An AK-15???? What's a AK-15??? Never heard of such 😂
Its the current russian military rifle, released in 2016, and looks nothing like an ar.
Who the hell called?? Can't we trace that? There were no people around the "active shooter", so can't they use that "less lethal" option he mentioned? He has to put several bullets into somebody who isn't pointing the gun at anyone? So unnecessary. The victim didn't have a loaded gun, so there's no way he could have made the cop feel threatened with it.
If you saw someone walking around wal mart with an AK you wouldn’t be scared? That’s bullshit. How is anyone supposed to know the gun isnt loaded or real? This one is on the victim
IF they did have a gun in their hands, less lethal is not the way, doesn’t matter if there is nobody around for a mile. You don’t meet lethal force with less lethal force, and most certainly cops don’t
There's an interview of the caller as well. The video title is Walmart blamed him for the killing. I don't remember what consequences if any he faced.
@@Richard-qj1os Less lethal CAN be the way, it has been done by police. But police aren't trained to avoid deadly force much, most departments are just starting to implement those things. And just like the billions of excuses when bodycams launched on how they'd be impossible to implement, cops will resist & complain that life can't work if less deadly force is used. Change is hard, but just like bodycams, this won't be as bad as they're thinking.
@@AliceA333 if the threat is a man holding a rifle in his hands, less lethal force is not the appropriate response. You’re pulling things straight from your ass and declaring them as fact. Trying to do something like that against a guy with a rifle is a sure fire way to get killed and DING DING SHOCKER ALERT police are people and people generally don’t want to be killed. Using a taser, OC Spray, or a beanbag round against a man with a rifle will almost certainly get you killed. Please learn more about this subject before continuing to argue emotionally instead of logically
ExArmy here.
So no one could identify that it was a toy pellet pew pew?
This is because a man that thought this was game. The man and his wife followed this supposed active shooter. Relaying info that was exaggerated to the extreme to the operator. It is definitely a situation where you have a man that just goes to walmart as if its for outing. Everyone should hear what was said by said witness. He laughed it off. Stupidity breeds evil.
Everyone making excuses for the cop should realize you are the problem as well. Aside from the caller the cop clearly said he saw him loading the weapon. They never even gave him a chance to put down the gun before shooting him. Whats the point in telling someone to drop the gun and get on the ground if you are not going to give them time to do it? Poor training thats it. The caller said an Active shooter but no shots were ever fired, of course he wouldnt get in trouble for costing an innocent man to die. They never value a black mans life. I recently saw a video of a cop literally running from a suspect like what?
Pretty dumb to take the airsoft rifle out of the box & wander around with it. A little common sense could have avoided all this.
Just confirming that John Crawford did not take the pellet gun out of its packaging - it was already unboxed on the shelf when he picked it up.
Who “innocently removes packaging” from an item they haven’t paid for, gun or not? Let’s not make the decedent into a saint here…
Who are the saints according to the Bible? Quit throwing words around, shalawam
He did not remove from the box. He found it unboxed on a shelf.
Removing my racist comment does not make it factually incorrect.

I want to see the Walmart videos, B4 I would make any Judgements.. They were sent there under the callers statements, so the caller should face charges...P/S Great videos! Thank you!
An 'AK-15', huh?! It sounds like somebody squished 2 rifles' names into one. I wonder if it took the 5.56 or the 7.62.....
They used to sell AR-15s in WalMart, for that matter (Bushmasters et al). My question is why the eventual Victim took the pellet rifle *out of its packaging* before taking it up to the register in the first place. Who does that? The price tag and UPC are on the ~box~.......
Whoever made that call should be charged with murder as well. Anyone knows if you say someone is an active shooter and pointing it at children youre risking that persons life. Whoever called absolutely lied, maybe he was waving it around willy nilly like and it could have been pointed in the direction of kids but the fact that he said hes an active shooter and hes reloading is a blantant lie.
A grown man taking a rifle out of a box and walking around a store with it is a fucking stupid thing to do.
Ok, it's already not right to start unpacking products before you buy them.
Fuck that dude walking around wal mart with an airsoft gun. Who does that? Then disobey a police officer when you have what the police think theres an active shooter. Good job bro. Darwin award.
1:53 "crawford did not obey" . And we're curious why this man was shot? If officers get an active shooter call and they run into a guy with what appears to be a rifle and he doesn't drop it its no wonder he was shot.
It was not an active shooter call. They startled the guy on the phone. He didn't have a chance to obey before he was shot
