The video doesn't support what he was or was not doing running or being startled. There was no escalation of force just 0 to 60 and the kid lost his life. Running or not you do not deserve to die. For comments like yours... think b4 you post. You all need to grow up. The video doesn’t support what he was or was not doing running or being startled.

I'm shocked people would think a person deserves that. His wife has to care for him for the rest of his life. According to reports, he was running, but only because he didn't know they were cops. They did not identify themselves to him and were not in the usual uniform, he was likely confused as to why people were chasing him down the street yelling. An unfortunate series of events, and I agree with everyone that you shouldn't mess with cops, just because they have no problem using excessive force and will shoot over anything. Especially here in Seattle. Christopher is actually still alive, and he still can’t walk or talk. I’m shocked people would think a person deserves that.

There is a question as to whether they identified themselves before they started running at him from a dark alley with a drunk transient at 1:30 in the morning.

I've ran from the police before when I was drinking underage at a party that got broken up, for drinking under age I should be dead? That is FUCKING ludicrous. You guys have all drank the koolaid.

You see how you react if you're in dodgy area and some guy shouts at you and runs at you and you don't know why!

The guy got spooked and probably couldn't see the officer that clearly.. sounds like it was instinctual to just run until getting into a lighted area. Would you just stand there? Amazing how many people shout "Don't run! End of story!" without thinking about the possibilities of what could've happened.

I hope you get slammed headfirst into a wall for doing nothing and get what you deserve.

Witnesses said and the police department has admitted that the officers were wearing all black and were way down a dark alley and all he might have heard was angry shouting. He actually seems to stop right when he seems to recognize it's not a danger (or so he thought) before the officer kills him (yes, it didn't happen then but the cop is responsible for his death). I am a huge supporter of the police and I think on a whole they do good, but I'm sick of innocent people being hurt because officers are treating everyone like the criminals (tazering 65 yr old men, slamming down a 69 yr old lady w dimenia, choking 14 yr old smartmouthed skaters and even conspiring & tampering w evidence to get a cop off from causing the accident and charging a girl w DUI). How many times do you see suspects give up but yet the cops still tackle them and slam them around? It needs to stop because it's the innocent who are being effected and every brutal move causes more tension between the cops and society. This isn't a one person thing. The police & the community need to support & trust each other or else the criminals keep winning...
