I just saw the video again, and sat closer to the TV this time...did anyone else see the suspect trying to turn over when the second officer got there? I dunno...I can't say it was for "no reason" simply because he ran from the cops in the first place, but what the third cop did was more than excessive.
I guess I'm just of the same school of thought at ktsnake...don't run from the cops. I had an uncle who was a police officer in NY (not NYPD) and he was shot (not killed, just shot which is bad enough) by a guy who was high on crack...so I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for people who run from the cops.
