Cop fires gun on accident? short video,

[SeattleCharger]

This is sort of strange, at first I couldn't tell where she shot the gun, but after a couple times, dang, she almost shoots the guy in the head, almost looks like she did shoot him in the shoulder at least, can't tell, I bet that guy was sort of scared, what is going on.   Did she do that on purpose?   How could you just shoot on accident like that?

    Edit:      I bet the other cop handcuffing the guy got a good scare too, she almost shoots him in the leg.

I heard about that, she is supposed to have her finger down the side of the trigger strait forward
ummmm I think she let the rush of the job get to her on that one, that should put behind a desk
for a little while and her partner a new pair of shorts.

A time when a safety feature could have come in handy

I disagree. Safeties should be turned off once the weapon is in your hand.  We're required by policy to remove safeties from our work weapons so we don't accidentally leave them on when the shit hits the fan.

In this case, the stupid cop should have lowered her weapon or put it away once the other cop went hands on.   If the guy starts fighting, she can't shoot him anyway, so put the damn gun away and keep your finger off the trigger till you're ready to pull it.

I think she was shooting at the squirrel, watch the video again and you can see it near the other car's tire/ It was probably rabid!

[Stormhammer]

haha - I love how she just puts the gun away calmly like as if nothing ever happened

I still like the DEA agent that accidentally discharges his weapon at a school presentation on gun safety.

[derailed]

i dont see any reason at all there for her to even have that gone drawn in the first place.

I agree with you. I also know there are no safeties on them. That's why I said a safety feature could have come in handy, not the safety should be turned on.

  Even with all the tactical rules broken;  I still think it wouldn't have happened in EITHER case if it were any other handgun other than a Glock.  This gun looks to be a Glock (as well as the DEA dude).  Before joining the Marines, and being taught proper weapon safety, I used to go shooting alot, and kept my finger on the trigger sometimes while facing downrange (a safe direction).  I've never had an accidental discharge.  I've never owned a Glock either.  Coincidence?

Looks like a Beretta to me.
