I won't blame the officer. He was most likely defending himself and this is exactly what happened.

Next, a Tacoma police car approached the area from Pacific and South 11th Street. Mark said the police unit took back streets and then came into the scene on South 9th Street from the east. Mark heard a siren but not any voices from the car's bullhorn.
"A lot of people swarmed in that direction (of the police car)," Mark said. "They were intending to block him."
I would have done the same thing. He could have been pulled from his car and beaten to death.
I guess now they will have to ban police interceptor vehicles. They are too dangerous to the public. The beat cops will just take buses, trains and Uber/Lyft to get to the wherever they need to be.
every one of them should be locked up..this crowd 'group think' bs is getting out of hand..just like the squid motorcycle riders that block traffic and then do their rodeo stunts..the cop shoulda run over a bunch more of them..
