And you can be fairly sure not many cops in NI would be stupid enough to shoot someone dead unless it at least looked like that on CCTV.

Like in the states, you drag the body where it will be acknowledged that the intruder /robber / aggressor was on your property, therefore giving you a reason to pop a cap in his ass
In this case, he knew the cameras could back his legitimate reason to shoot this young fellow, so he did !!
If he shot him and didn't want the cameras to be witness, then the cameras would have been found to be faulty

Is this what happened



Just cos someone has a knife is no reason to shoot. And if the police officer was in the petrol station building and felt his life was threatened, he was presumably close enough not to miss an arm or a lg?

Friends, taking another person's life - whatever they have done - is never something to celebrate. I will never believe in 'eye for an eye' nor in death sentences.

So I suppose that we will have to await the outcome of the investigation.

Twenty people looking at the CCTV shouldn't take long. Twenty!!! I could understand five, but twenty!!!! It's true, they don't do things by halves in Northern Ireland.

IF it is how it seems, then he should of shot him twice lol, thats cheered me up.

Someone threatening another with a knife whilst commiting robbery deserves to be shot.

Ed, your so fecking liberal
Probably a bit much for a robbery at knife point, but choose that path in life then what do you expect ?

So coppers in NI carry guns when their not on duty?
