Police release video showing 9 officers fatally shoot man on Tennessee interstate

nine officers fired their gunsThe man, identified as Landon Eastep, 37, of Nashville, did not possess a gun, but took out a cylindrical object from a pocket, prompting officers from three agencies to shoot at him on Interstate 65, Metropolitan Nashville Police Department spokesperson Don Aaron said in a video introducing the body camera footage.NBC News does not know what preceded the released video, which was edited by police and showed body camera footage from two officers.

“The trooper reported that he stopped and approached Eastep with the intent to give him a ride off the interstate,” Aaron said. “Whatever you’re worried about, we can fix it. Let’s get you some help, though,” the Mount Juliet officer says. “This is not the answer. You and I know it. You don’t want to hurt me. I know you don’t. I damn sure don’t want to hurt you.”Police released more than four minutes of interaction between the officers and Eastep from one officer's body camera. That footage was from Officer James Kidd's body camera, police said.

“I want you to go home today. I don’t want you to end up dead on the side of the interstate. Nobody wants that,” the officer says.

More Mental Evaluations are Needed for Police Officers. They Constantly walk with Lethal Weapons and longing to use them. Why, Not 1 out of 9 officers thought, use Non-lethal Weapon, he's a good distance, we are SAFE, Aim for Extremities NOT Center Mass? JusticeForLandonEastep

The nine 'officers' murdering Landon Eastep in this video are a lawless, violent, racist gang. They are badly trained and terrorizing the communities they 'serve.' The federal government needs to arrest all 9 of these 'officers' and investigate all their departments.

The technology is available to use thermal imaging to detect if a firearm is concealed. I would bet half these men have the tech for hunting. Every police car should have this tech! Could have saved a man’s life!

Suicide by police.

They executed this poor helpless man. This was an execution. Call it what it fucking is.
