        @USATODAY bad deal...but once again a criminal fleeing police. Stop criminal activity & don't run = stay alive!

        @Amir_Allen @USATODAY nobody disputes it was bad. But common denominator is crime and fleeing

        @Dallas014 @Amir_Allen @USATODAY so the punishment for his crime and fleeing is death. that sounds like your viewpoint.

        @BHbravesfan29 @Amir_Allen @USATODAY it didn't make it to punishment because the cop messed up. I'm pointing out cause and effect.

        @Amir_Allen @Dallas014 @USATODAY Bc they are shaped almost identical of each other. If he wouldn't have ran none of this would've happened..

        @USATODAY Now days it seems the basic story is irrelevant. The only important thing is the race of individuals involved. Sad but true.

        @USATODAY the cop in question was 73 years old. 😳 Maybe he should be retired.

        @USATODAY This can't go unpunished. For someone on the force as long as he was, he shouldn't have made that mistake. Horrible.
