(N.Morgan) Man was shot by police after surrendering to them. The person who filmed the video, was shocked by how the police conducted themselves, in this pursuit and capture. When the police shot 40-year-old father Manuel Orosco Longoria, he had his hands up in the air and his back was turned to the police officers.
After shooting and killing 40-year-old father Manuel Orosco Longoria, of Eloy, Arizona, police released a statement on the incident as follows:
“Officers and deputies attempted to use less lethal means to take him into custody including firing several bean bag rounds and Taser deployments. The suspect refused to obey the commands and suddenly reached back into the vehicle. A deputy felt the suspect was reaching for the gun he reportedly had, so he then fired two rounds.”
There’s just one problem, video surfaced of the shooting and it Longoria had his hands above his head in surrender a second before the shooting, also it shows he made no movement to grab anything out of his car. If that’s not bad enough, no gun was found — Longoria was unarmed.
In this new world of ours, complying can get you killed. I know this man was a criminal, but he had rights. He had the right to a trial before his peers and the right to still be alive. The police are going too far and it will only escalate and become much worse, if we don’t keep exposing them and their crimes against us.
