A Wichita man was killed by the law after a troll "swatted" his address. |
The fatal shooting of Andrew Finch draws attention to bad cops with firearms.
This becomes another national news event in which draws the attention of Black Lives Matter. The victim was a 28 year old White male who had nothing to do with the call.
The person who made the call was a gamer who played Call of Duty. Andrew doesn't play video games.
Someone online had called the police claiming a man had a gun and was threatening to take out as many people nearby.
The Wichita Police responded in kind. They bang on the door and Andrew opens the door with the deer in headlights look. They told him to drop to the ground. He was about to drop to the ground, but a cop saw him reaching to pull his pants up.
He thought he was reaching for a firearm and put a couple rounds in him.
Andrew was a father of two and didn't have any violent history with the law.
It now prompted the Wichita Police, Sedgwick County boys and the FBI to look into the matter. The cop is placed in the freezer and will be investigated. The police haven't released the name or years of this cop. The junk food media will look into his disciplinary record to determine if this was justified.
