So Cameron Redus was unarmed but allegedly "attacked" the officer - making him fear for his life... I wonder what this unarmed young man could have done to make an armed officer fear for his life and fire 4 to 8 shots at him?
One of his friends interviewed in this article:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2520586/Campus-officer-shot-dead-unarmed-student-Cameron-Redus-says-felt-life-danger.html
The headlines I saw said that Redus attacked the officer with his own baton.
If true, I don't blame the officer for defending himself. I would have felt threatened, too. (Please note my emphasis of, "if true").
Here's the story that says Redus attacked the officer:
