He had a knife… on a stick.

I’ll need to see the video on this one, officers, but for now, mark me as damned skeptical that this killing was self-defense.

    He said officers tried to calm Mora down before twice using a Taser on him. They then fired beanbag rounds before ultimately killing him, the man said.

    They did try other options before shooting him though. It unfortunately sounds like they ran out of options.

      He had a knife taped to a stick.
      They put numbered him.

      They could have done a lot more than just kill him.

      We don’t have video anyways to know exactly what happened.

      None of the officers were wearing body cameras.
