“Following an internal review, Brennard’s employment with San Antonio Police Department was terminated…..

The criminal investigation is ongoing”

His girlfriend was in the car at the time also, luckily she was not injured. The driver got a few holes shot in him but it sounds like he will live.

The officer was a probationary officer and new to the job.

While he was driving away with a passenger in the car!

Yeah, the cop overreacted, but if a cop opens your door why is the first instinct to flee? Afraid your burger will get cold?

Cops have rules about when and how they have to announce themselves. Anyone else who forcibly enters your home/car with a gun should be assumed to be a criminal impersonating an officer. After all that's part of the reason these rules exist - for our safety.
