A shaky cell phone video captured the moments before a Texas police officer shot and killed a woman who said she was pregnant.

Now people on social media are divided over whether the shooting was justified.

The officer was patrolling an apartment complex in the Houston suburb of Baytown late Monday when he saw a woman he knew from previous encounters, Baytown police said. A family member identified the woman as Pamela Shantay Turner.



A witness' cell phone video showed the woman yelling at the officer:

"I'm walking! I'm actually walking to my house!" the woman screams at him. She later says the officer is "harassing" her.

The video shows the officer apparently trying to handcuff the woman, but she breaks free. The officer then fires his Taser stun gun, and the woman slowly drops to the ground.

A scuffle ensues. The woman keeps yelling "Why?" but the officer isn't heard answering.



As the officer keeps trying to arrest the woman, she flails her arms and yells, "I'm pregnant!"

The struggle continued, and according to Baytown police, the woman "was able to gain control of the Taser and used it on the officer."

In the video, the woman appears to reach for the officer, who stands back and fires five shots toward her.

Sad

na wa o!!

police brutality everywhere... the madness affecting the nigerian police force has gone international, its now affecting their counterparts in the states.


sad, how the police are killing the lives they were supposed to be protecting

We run to conclusion too quickly just because she's 'black'. For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction.

If only she'd obeyed initial instruction.
If only she'd not gone for the tesar.
If only she'd gone to the authorities to report a case of a man in uniform harassing her, she won't have been killed.

Note: I am not justifying her killer, but that if her approach had changed, she would still been alive.

Na wa oo...

SARS don escape the next level reach Yankee?

What sayest though my collega....Trump

When in Rome, act like the romans.

Do everything possible to make sure you’re in the right, following orders and not breaking the law. Don’t give a policeman any excuse to use force of any kind.

If an officer of the law still decides to be unfortunate then he will be dealt with.

You all should try as much as possible to learn your rights as civilians and the rights of the police as law enforcers.

Knowledge is power. May what you don’t know not kill you.

Stay safe, stay sharp.
