Did they? I beg to differ.
Given the initial 911 call mentioned in the report, I would say that they did. As I said, I think that from the description, and what the guy said the cops response to the question of "why did you shoot me?" that it was an accident. That doesn't justify it, or mean that he shouldn't be brought up charges, but that it should be treated as an accidental shooting. I would be curious to see the investigation report, and a follow up story.
