I am a retired LEO. I could not believe how many innocent bystanders were hit by police fire. I was trained to be sure of my target before pulling the trigger. That also meant to be aware of other nearby bystanders in the area or beyond. Sure the bad guy had a gun. And maybe he pointed at one of the officers. All reports state he did not fire or have time to fire. But to unleash a barrage of bullets with so many people around was careless. Sure the police were making a split second decision. Sure they were firing on adrenaline. But somewhere they should have used common sense. Thankfully none of the innocent bystanders were killed or seriously injured.
