A California man is facing a string of charges after allegedly threatening to burn his brother’s house down and charging at cops while armed with a screwdriver.

  1. I'm glad that they didn't kill him like they do so many from that distance I never understood why you have to shoot a man in the chest for a knife when they're so other many places to shoot them and bring them down

  2. 게나 고동이나 총기소지가 가능한 나라라서 그런가 경찰이 총을 겨누고 있는데도 쪼는 기색이 없네. 신기한 나라야.

  3. I'm sorry these cops can spot a joint in a car at night in a car with four people in it! But they can't see that this man has a screw driver at 20 paces in broad daylight? I know they have a tough job but how many cops and all they saw is a metal object? A little overkill I think!

  4. in Canada , the take time to desescelate the situation , waiting for more police officer, talk to him like a friend , no guns , what happens , what your name, talk to me, hey , understand , life is tough sometime, make some joke . Never look like , I m police officer , show guns like it s a dead situation , make him feell it s a war zone . Desescelate the situation , like , if it s necessary , just make a joke , like, ouff , don t tell me , i have too a hard day , friendly and say truth, no choice , you have to go in jail , not a big deal , i don t tell you have a scewdriver .

  5. Why didn’t they tase him it would have been more justified if he was tase and continued to charge at the officers because right now it looks like he was shot for no reason

  6. Cops need 4 years military service before becoming officer 💯 most police never been in any real fights let alone gun fights and they react out of fear instead of bravery and shoot people they can easily disarm with taser or non fatal shot ……they got NO BALLS 💯 this is why I moved out of the city and enjoy country life now ……anybody on my property illegally or trying to violate my constitutional rights will be buried and never found again …..

  7. Hey you got anymore of that situation of design cuz we're waiting to see those ones where you had that you know the mass casualties
    knowing all that foreign language speaking that you heard
    we can't wait for those Redbook scenarios
    Paid by the hour
    A mass mock of life scenario training
    Mixed in with real

  8. Hey remember all those red flag scenarios that you were creating back and they know what was that twelve and fourteen we like your
    You know all those people you paid to participate
