Texas athlete's brother not angry at police after shooting - KSRO
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The brother of a college football player killed by police at a Texas car dealership questioned Monday whether deadly force was needed in the confrontation, which can't be seen on video because there were no surveillance... " He's also perplexed by security footage showing his brother, Christian Taylor, breaking into a car in the dealership lot and crashing his vehicle into the glass showroom before police arrived. The lack of video footage from inside the dealership makes it difficult to have a clear picture of how the events leading up to the unarmed 19-year-old's death transpired, Joshua Taylor said. I know he wouldn't attack any officer or anybody in authority at all, or attack anybody for that matter. Arlington police have said officers arriving to a burglary call early Friday found Christian Taylor roaming inside the showroom of the dealership. Police have said the officers told Taylor to surrender and lie down on the ground, but he refused. Police have said the incident ended with officer Brad Miller shooting his service weapon four times, hitting Taylor at least twice. The officer with Miller — his field training officer, a nearly two-decade veteran — used his Taser, but not a gun. Source: www.ksro.com
