          @BBCBreaking How does police training justify twelve shots at an unarmed teen?

          @Wanderer711 @BBCBreaking Multiple shots. Unarmed teen. Rash, punitive, excessive, unnecessary. If standard protocol, then that is problem.

          @SouthEast911 @BBCBreaking Media must do their part to bring about a more just system, a police force that treats all fairly & with justice.

          @musicalofethics EXACTLY. one shot could have disarmed him assuming he was a threat. Maybe 2. Why did he need 6?

          @BBCBreaking Sounds like the procedures require an amendment. Batons instead of guns, back-up police available rather than solitary officer.
