NEWS Four separate investigations were underway Tuesday after cell phone video surfaced of San Francisco police shooting a man in a wheelchair following an incident during which he allegedly stabbed an officer in the city's South of Market district. Officers had responded to reports of a man vandalizing city vehicles in the area of 10th and Howard streets Tuesday morning at approximately 10:15 a.m. The intersection is next to the San Francisco Behavioral Health Services building. The man, whose name has not yet been released, was in a wheelchair but was not confined to it, San Francisco Police Officer Chiang said. "He was seen up and moving about a number of times," he said. The suspect had a rock and knife in his hand and was slashing the tires of some city vehicles in the area, Chiang said. He did not know what the man's motive was for vandalizing the cars." - KTVU. s/o to UrbanReup

Real brave of them. :sarc:

A wad of cops against one man sitting.

They must have hit him with a bean bag,
or something like that.

Nothing new here.. move on!

Can't imagine why the police bothered this poor innocent guy.

C'mon Book. The guy was in a wheel chair. These pigs are cowards and 'roid monkeys.

Yeah, I didn't catch that. I still think they could of thumped him good with a baton. Isn't this the guy that was shot in the groin twice? A dick-stabbing would have been kinder.

I'm usually one of the first to condemn police brutality against an honest citizen, but when someone pulls a knife on a cop... He's looking to win a Darwin award.

Granted, the cops look a bit silly pointing a beanbag shotgun at a guy in a wheel chair, but to subdue a guy with a knife they'd either have to whack him with a club, taze him, or shoot him. It's like when Meathead quoted Archie Bunker the statistic for gun-control that more people commit suicide using a gun. Archie replied, "Would you feel better if they jumped out a window?" IOWs Pull a knife on a cop and it won't end pretty.

Kook going about slashing tires, waves a knife at cops.

So they shot him with bean bags.

Meh...
