He then grabbed the officers taser then ran away and then pointed the taser toward the officers and the officer opened fire. Atlantas mayor had this to say while announcing the chief of police was stepping down. While there may be debate as to whether this was appropriate years of deadly force, i firmly believe that there is a clear distinction between what you can do and what you should do.
