An L.A. police SWAT member was recorded saying 'happy hunting' to other officers before police shooting, LAPD Chief Michel Moore confirmed to The Times.

, which is still pending, Colomey claimed the problematic members “glamorize the use of lethal force” and ensure that officers who “share the same values” are promoted in the unit while commanders turn a “blind eye” to the problems.

“I believe that when this matter is fully explored, including a review of SWAT’s actions over the last decade, that you’ll find that these are highly professional individuals trained in a manner that seeks to preserve life,” Moore said.“How would an officer make that remark?” Moore said. “SWAT has my highest level of confidence — as well as my highest level of expectations — of any tactical unit in the Police Department.

After negotiations with James failed to resolve the standoff, members of the SWAT unit decided to fire tear gas into the apartment, police said.
