Warning: video shows shooting of man
A critical element that Buzzfeed leaves out of the story is that this was outside the wedding of the man’s ex-girlfriend, and that he had told her “there’s a bullet with your name on it” here. Fortunately also at 5:30, you hear the pastor who called for the police originally confirming the officer ‘followed procedure’. I’m sure that wouldn’t matter for the people who will see Terence Walker as just another excuse for their protests.
Via Buzzfeed:
The shooting happened Jan. 17 when Officer Chansey McMillin tried to search Terence Walker, 21, outside a church, according to KOTV. Police had been called to the scene due to reports of a disturbance between Walker and a woman identified as either his girlfriend or ex-girlfriend. Pastor Andre Jones made the 911 call, and told police “he’s here with a gun,” The Oklahoman reported.
McMillin reportedly felt a weapon during the pat down.
As he was being patted down, Walker took off running. McMillian, who was wearing a body camera, chased him.
