A 17-year-old African American driver was shot once after a police officer fired 7 times into the driver’s side cabin when the suspect attempted to flee capture in South Carolina. The driver was initially pulled over for loud music, but as it turns out had marijuana and a weapon in the vehicle when he put his car in drive to escape custody. The arresting officer then backed up from the vehicle and that’s when he fired 7 rounds into the vehicle. On a radio call after the incident, he said he was in danger, but as this video shows was the officer in danger? Did he need to fire? Mark Sovel, Elliot Hill and Jo Ankier look at the controversial video on the Lip News.
