Maybe, just maybe, the headline should read, crazy woman swinging weapon and damaging vehicles who then did so at a police car shot by LASD deputy. What do you think?

And that why you don't drink or drive as Police might shot you. Felt sorry for the victim as she might be having a espoide of sudden psychosis but didn't know these were actually real police than hallucination. May her soul rest in peace and not pick a soul contract of mental ill or any sort of difficult life again. Stay away from drugs as well and the police have other weapon than a gun.

You gotta love it LA Los Angeles back to normal cops shooting people because they fear for their safety lol

[thegrid]

None lethal rounds,
sand bags, taser, maze, baton and special combat training but he opted for deadly force,
Sheriffs don't get thought first amendment in their training centers so they come out hot all the time risking lawsuits from the peoples funding,

Latest tip by anonymous caller she took the baton from the deputy and was going to deliver a deadly blow so it's ok to use deadly force
