    I’d love to know what “recently linked to a firearms incident” actually means, especially given that it seems to have been flagged by an automated system and that “firearms incident” was seen as justification to ram a car off the road and then shoot the occupant in the back before any actual threat was verified.

      According to OP’s article it had been used in a shooting. Still not really an excuse to kill its occupant though.
