So, they just thought they could walk into the apt.? Warrant? Was that even legal? I am sure it is if you ask police. The dude had just had enough.
Just says so much about Trump that he begins by calling the guy 'handsome'. Dude rambles like a senile Grandpa and makes Biden seem switched on.
"My partner tells me I need to put handcuffs on you" is a phrase you NEVER EVER tell a suspect; even less one prone to violence. Not armchair quarterbacking; but speaking from decades of LEO experience. Tragic situation.
before you comment that the girlfriend should have told the dispatcher about the gun SHE didn’t call. The neighbor did. Cody was being beaten at the time so wasn’t able to call. Like seriously what video are these people watching?
Why does one cop have another gun in his ancle? Throw donwn to cover his ass? Aint that interesting
So he had past interactions? Wonder how much that influenced his reactions in this situation?
Even though he's a DV offender and needed punishment for that crime I do wonder why he felt he had no choice but to fight it out?
Cop can be mighty dangerous as well. Not to mention many lives destroyed for minor offences.
No way I'd sign up to be a cop, especially these days.
Can't help wondering why no one moved behind him after saying he's under arrest. Its surprising, as violent as the man was known to be, and this being a DV call. I'm not blaming, just confused. RIP Josh Owen.
the girlfriend maybe should have said…… O……before U go in……. he has a gun…..and O..ya…he said he would use it
Domestic issues are the worst for cops. Anything can go down in a second –
I've got to stop watching these videos. Almost all of them show ineptitude, poor training and bad decisions made by officers.
im from bosnia and i am realy sorry for his family and friends that had this impact of shock RIP Mr owens
Once again, alcohol. Just, alcohol. There it is.
SAD.
Police are absolutely foolish, in so many ways this was extremely risky and illegal. ‘I got a call’ does not ever provide authority to break multiple laws.
I didn't know Starbucks had police
Joshua Owen died because of this woman’s stupidity to not tell the dispatcher about her boyfriend’s gun and about how he said he won’t go down without a fight. If it were up to me she would be charged with misuse of 911 or something else.
Guns in America 😢
So sick and tired of hearing criminals throw the bad childhood card out there!!!!! If you only knew……
They weren’t ambushed. They came into someone’s home, and attempted to detain him, based on potentially false information from a hysterical woman (you know that’s reliable). The person they tried to arrest had different thoughts on the matter.
Routine call???? Domestic violence is the most dangerous call of all. More dangerous than robbery in progress or Bank robbery.
