Must watch: New York Times: The David McAtee shooting: Did aggressive policing lead to a fatal outcome?
The NYT takes all of the available video of the David McAtee shooting. Turns out what looked like muzzle flash from the restaurant was bottles exploding because of police fired rounds. So, yeah, he was returning fire. Police were shooting at people fleeing into his restaurant. He had no way of knowing that ordinance being shot at him was "non-lethal". The police did not follow department policy in their engagement.
Reminder that Breonna Taylor was shot and killed by plainclothes Louisville police executing a likely illegal no-knock warrant
