OK, The cops are chasing this guy (about to be arrested for attempting to sell a gun to an undercover cop), he gets out of his car and keeps running, cops tackle him, are in the process of cuffing him...
...and a SEVENTY-THREE YEAR-OLD reserve deputy comes up to try and subdue the guy with his taser.
But he accidentally pulls his firearm, and not noticing that he has a pistol in his hand and not a taser, shoots the guy in the back. The guy subsequently dies at the hospital.
The other cops show utter indifference to the shooting, as one cop kneels on the guy's head. I can kind of chalk that part up to adrenaline, as it looks to have been a crazy situation.
Video (from police body cam) at the link. The original video (which I viewed on another site) has some NSFW language; I'm guessing that the language has been bleeped out at the above link, as it's an NBC affiliate, but work filters won't let me confirm.
