A cop in Minnesota accidentally shot a guy in the arm after he pulled him over last June. The guy was on a motorcycle and tried to outrun him. And they hit 110 miles-an-hour before he finally pulled over. So that’s why the cop’s gun was out.
And you can tell it was an accident in the dash-cam video below that just came out. But it’s still kind of weird how polite they both are to each other right after it happened. When the cop says it was an accident, the guy just keeps saying he knows it was. Then the cop says he’s going to make sure he’s okay, and the guy says he trusts him.
By the way, the guy he shot did end up being arrested for fleeing an officer. And the cop ended up on administrative leave for a while, but he’s back at work now.
