Posted by Stephen Bauman on Wed Sep 3 07:31:54 2014, in response to Re: Unarmed, posted by Nilet on Wed Sep 3 00:02:28 2014. The 18 officers whose guns were not stolen are irrelevant to the claims presented in the original post, as they don't necessarily represent cases of a cop being shot by an unarmed suspect; an officer who is shot with his own gun without ever losing possession of it is more likely to have been killed by an accidental discharge or bad aim during a struggle.Here's footnote 1 from Table 13: The term "stolen" indicates the weapon was taken from the scene of the incident. Regardless of whether the officer's gun was taken from the scene, there is some ambiguity of whether the assailant was armed. It's an assumption that the assailant used the officer's gun because the assailant was unarmed. |
