This child is traumatized for life. Thank God he's going to survive this

[Dave-nmuf]

The kid asked his mom what did he do wrong. Nothing but tears after hearing that.

[raymondshaw]

Paid leave that`s called VACATION. He is TOO SCARY to be a cop.

[daviddeluca]

paid leave? This idiot needs to be held accountable! God bless that young boy and his family. Him asking “what did I do wrong” just broke my heart….

[HeartlesSv]

If youre such an easily scared person that a kid walking around the corner gets him immediately shot, then you have no business being a police officer.

[Moonbaby]

That officer needs to be fired. Paid leave!? Are you kidding me?! He shot a child. A CHILD!!

[TDlv]

"paid leave" - American privileges for criminals

[gemmaturner]

Absolutely crazy. That cop needs to go to prison

[enolagaye]

This breaks my heart. I'm so glad this young man survived. Praying he gets justice.

That guy was threatened by a 4’ tall kid. Definitely need to rethink his career choice. They also need to take the pay out of that leave

[SirCutRy]

Police are being undertrained, and the training they receive teaches them to fear and use force as they see fit to make themselves feel safe. This is a systemic issue.

When you call for protection only to find they're even more dangerous than who you were trying to escape.

We can only protect ourselves these days.

[brandalynnmarie]

We CAN NOT live in a world where our "peace keepers" shoot first and ask questions later. My prayers are with this baby and his family, who did everything he was supposed to do

[tammyjackson]

So the officer is on a paid vacation. Had this been a private citizen they would be in jail. They need to be treated the same.

[Quantum-Omega]

This is highly unacceptable, the cop in question needs to be federally indicted for attempted murder.

[ladym]

Paid leave? This child is traumatized! He should be fired and prosecuted. What the hell is going on?

[monicaprince-grice]

They need to stop giving these police a paid vacation when they do wrong!!!

[loveisgolden]

That poor baby will probably never call 911 again no matter what situation he finds himself in... smh I'm glad he's alive.

[Samael]

So... Cop show up to a house, draws gun, Yells "Everyone outta' the house"
Family complies and begins exiting the house.
Cop starts blasting - "They were coming right for me, it was self-defense!!"

Fuck society. It's getting increasingly difficult to not hate everyone at the moment.

Calling 911 when you're black might be a death sentence. Think twice!
