Officers showed up at the home and found a man struggling with a woman over a knife. An officer opened fire and struck the man, killing him at the scene. Only later did they discover the man who was killed lived at the home and was struggling to fend off the woman who had broken into his home.
Police say Brandon Durham, 43, had called 911 and reported multiple people outside his home shooting, then told the 911 operator that someone had entered his home through the front and back doors and he was locking himself in the bathroom.
He also told the 911 operator that he was home with his 15-year-old daughter, according to police. Officers kicked open the door after arriving on scene and hearing someone screaming as well as damage to vehicles parked outside the property, police said.
Sounds like OP did neither. While I dont trust cops at all, statistically, it would have been better to make the call because they more often than not don’t shoot people. And actually, yes, bullets would solve the child abuse problem, just not in a way anybody would want. Can’t abuse a child if you’re dead.
I’d absolutely roll the dice for the child’s safety over the piece of shit parents life.
Im sure watching their shitty parents getting murdered in front of them would do wonders for their mental health.
