[QUOTE=Pointman;7475059]Report reads

Municipal police in the city of about 16,500 said the shooting was in self-defence, saying the officer was “confronted at the scene by a woman holding a knife who made threats.”

As I understand, the woman was standing on a balcony holding a knife and making some verbal threats. There is no report, let alone evidence, about Moore being close to the officer. There is also no indication of a combat of any kind. As per policeman words, she was allegedly holding knife and shouting off something like "go away or I stab you". That doesn't justify killing.

And there's no evidence that she even hadva knife at the first place. We all post like it's proven and only argue whether shots were justified. For all we know, she may have never had a knife at all.[/QUOTE

Disregard.
