A bystander who was fatally shot on a Brooklyn stoop may have been killed by a police officer’s errant round, ballistics testing indicated on Wednesday.
Several officers confronted Mr. Webster, who officials said ignored their orders and fired at them. Eight officers returned fire — in two distinct volleys — firing 73 bullets and striking Mr. Webster twice, in his chest and hip.

Most of the cops Ive encountered hate their guns and admit to never touching them unless qualifying and never owning any personally.

The reason the cops cannot hit anything is their weapon of choice. They all seem to want those Glocks, and it is true they are light, and powerful. But, every time you fire, you must again acquire your target, the lightness of the pistol makes the barrel jump up when it is fired. I know this from experience. A heavier weapon would be a much better choice for a cop to carry.
