RTFA. PCSO said he then used a brick to attempt to break into a resident’s truck.
A witness told detectives they saw the suspect run at deputies with the shears. He was tased twice, but it didn't stop him.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said he climbed into the passenger side of a PCSO patrol vehicle, trying to get a deputy’s rifle.
That’s when two deputies, identified as a trainee and his trainer, opened fire on the suspect, killing him.
Judd said Schultz had a lengthy criminal history that included several arrests for methamphetamine.
If the story is accurate, I have to say the cops were justified in this case.
That headline was a better story arc than Last of Us season 2.
Indeed, one whacked out MAGAt.

Real life being more GTA than actual GTA.
Assuming what is said in the article is true, this is a rare case where I think the lethal force is justifiable. The dude was probably on meth and their tasers where doing nothing as he attempted to take one of their rifles.
God bless Florida.
Classic cop shit. Show up after all the drama is over. Makes it worse.
There is only one bigger waste of money than cops. And that's the Military. We have nukes. Fuckin' try it. Go 'head. I'll pull the fuckin' temple down on all of us.
