This
one occurred Saturday morning when a Miami Beach, Florida, officer
killed a man during a
confrontation on a busy street. A passerby shot
the video and posted it to Instagram.
Police started looking for the man after a report of a bank robbery, police Chief Daniel Oates said at a press briefing.
The suspect was spotted a block from the bank, went into a barbershop
and came out with a straight-edge razor, the chief said. The man raised
his hand with the razor during a confrontation with police and was shot
twice by an officer with a rifle, Oates said.
The video shows a shirtless man confronted by several police officers.
The
man takes a couple steps forward, places his left hand on the front of a
parked police cruiser and stops. His right hand can no longer be seen
-- it is blocked from view by an officer to his side.
Moments
later, the officer fires the rifle -- two shots can be heard -- and the
man falls backward onto the street, clutching his chest. A scream can
be heard.Another police shooting has been captured on video and posted on social media.
