One thing that also strikes me, is that when the guy turned to run, he was doing at best a slow jog. You're telling me the 33 year old cop who looks in decent shape couldn't run down a 50 year old dude that could barely maintain a slow jog? Pathetic.

Of course he was running slow. He was probably tired because that was the second time he had ran (just ran from the car to the point the video starts) and he just got done fighting with the cop and rolling around on the ground.
No doubt the cop messed up but it really aggravates me that the media leaves out details and exaggerates others to push their agenda. There is probably no explanation for why the officer shot him in the back, but there is a lot more to the story.
I in no way support what the officer chose to do, but I could argue a lot of this with the media all day long.
