6:00 news showed the police pelting this guy, LIVE, with about 50 pellet bags...and he was like 65...they could have easily tackled him and taken him down another way. By no means condoning what he did, and of course, I am certain the press only showed a portion and not the whole story.
Further reports that this man had not taken his medication...again, not excusing what he did. I just believe that the NNPD could have handled this situation a bit better than they did.
