Update

The guy the cops shot Friday died. Twenty-five year old Elias Quinones was a passenger in the car involved in the chase. The driver, Robert Macklin, admits he evaded police because he had a gun hidden. After a short chase, Robert turned down the wrong street and ended up at a dead end. They were boxed in. As he tried to stop and turn the car, he says, he saw an officer get out of his patrol car and fire four shots. Two bullets hit Quinones, one in the head. The U.S. Department of Justice recently warned the police against shooting at moving vehicles, pointing out that “such shootings could cause bullet ricochets into officers or innocent bystanders.”

According to the Californian, “Officers have killed suspects while shooting at moving vehicles in at least three separate incidents this year.”
