美国拉斯维加斯(Las Vegas)一名43岁男子因家中发生枪击事件而拨打911报案,怎料警方抵达现场后竟开枪打死他。
根据美媒,男子杜伦(Brandon Durham)女友布德罗(Alejandra Boudreaux)宣称自己有自杀倾向。她供称,自己闯入男友家中,是“希望警察开枪打死我,希望(杜伦)能承受我在他的房子里造成的破坏”。
事发于11月12日。警方抵达现场时,杜伦与布德罗正在争夺一把刀,警员布克曼(Alexander Bookman)呼吁两人“放下刀!放下刀!”然后开了一枪,布克曼之后又向倒地的杜伦开枪5次。
布克曼随即告诉警官自己开枪打错人。警方尝试挽救杜伦的生命,但杜伦被宣告当场死亡。
美媒指,民众报案却遭警员射杀的案件引发在美国全国各地引起关注。根据警方说法,这是今年以来发生的第8单涉及警员的致命枪击事件。
杜伦家属呼吁立即对布克曼发出逮捕令,但布克曼的律师表示,布克曼没有犯下任何违法行为,“虽然杜伦的死是悲惨事件,但布克曼当时正履行他的职责,并无意犯罪。”
