What Happened?
The man, whose name has not been released, entered the convenience store to buy candy. While he was making his purchase, a police officer entered the store and approached him. According to witnesses, the officer asked the man if he had any outstanding warrants, to which the man replied that he did not.
However, the officer did not believe him and asked the man to put his hands on the counter. The man complied, but the officer then pulled out his gun and pointed it at the man.
Why Did The Officer Pull His Gun?
The reason for the officer's actions are unclear. Some have speculated that he may have mistaken the man for someone else who had outstanding warrants, while others have suggested that the officer may have overreacted or acted out of fear.
Whatever the reason, the incident has sparked outrage among many who believe that the officer's actions were excessive and unwarranted.
