The police narrative on the death of the older suspect:
Backup arrived and a massive gunfight ensued, including more homemade
explosive devices. Eventually Tamerlan came out from cover and
approached the officers, firing as he did. He then ran out of ammo and
officers took their chance.
"He runs out of ammunition, the bad guy, and so one of my police
officers comes off the side, tackles him in the street trying to get
him handcuffed, there's two or three officers handcuffing him in the
street...at the same time, at the last minute, they obviously have
tunnel vision, very, very stressful situation, one of them yells out
"look out" and here comes the black SUV, the carjacked car, directly
at them. They dive out of the way and he runs over his brother, and
drags him a short distance down the street悠n effect killing his
brother?雄es, that's what we think." *

When I first read this I just kind of nodded, ok, that's the story.
But after hearing the eyewitness report that this is absolutely not what
happened, that instead it was the police who ran over the suspect and then
pumped him full of bullets **... it occurred to me - WOW, what a really
really ridiculous story the cops told. They were supposedly in a chase
with the guy throwing pipe bombs and shooting at them, keeps shooting at
them, jumps out and is shooting at him, then he runs out of ammunition...
and he doesn't get mowed down right then and there?? The cops somehow
know it's safe to put down their guns and try to take him on hand to hand?
I mean you've got to be kidding me. This is clearly NOT how it happened.
Makes you wonder about the entire chase narrative, and everything else.
The facts the cops would tell such a ridiculous lie means they can't be
trusted. I truly hope for a fair trial where everything can be looked at.
