<<<read the article or the rest will be spoiler>>>>
I happened to be standing across the street from the troop HQ when this went down and saw the most amazing exodus of SHP cars from the parking lot. I didn't know what was happening but checked the news later on.
Not to really second guess the SHP or the trooper but:
1 - not a good enough frisk or not good enough training
2 - i think I can see where having a barrier between the front and back seats would interfere with the general mission of the SHP but there should probably be a lock-down-ring (my term) so the prisoner's arms aren't free to move even if cuffed.
3 - hell yea...if he actually only discharged two shots then he was a great shot under much pressure.
4 - one report has him cut from forehead to mouth...ouch.
