The president of the Chicago police union said the cop who fatally shot a 13-year-old boy who appeared to have a gun in his hand right before he raised his hands was “100 percent justified” in opening fire.
“He was 100 percent right,” Fraternal Order of Police President John Catanzara said, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. “The offender still turned with a gun in his hand. This occurred in eight-tenths of a second.”
In an appearance later on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time,” Catanzara doubled down — even insisting that the “officer’s actions were actually heroic.”
“Time lapse video shows that that officer had eight-tenths of a second to determine if that weapon was still in his hand or not. Period,” he said.
