Be the first to Comment 0 Recommendation(s) SEATTLE, WA. (NEWS1130) - We're now getting a better idea of the last moments of a Vancouver Island woodcarver's life. John T. Williams was shot to death by a police officer in Seattle on August 30th.
A new police dash cam video shows Williams walking across the street in front of the car. Officer Ian Burke says he stopped and told Williams repeatedly to put a knife down. The officer steps off-screen and shortly after that you could hear a number of gunshots go off.
Court evidence shows the knife Williams was holding was closed at the time of the shooting. An inquest into the shooting death is set to begin in Washington in January.
WTF? the police shot the guy just because he had a knife(closed knife) on his hand? I thought they can only shot if a person has a gun or holding a knife on someone?
