Bodycam video was released earlier this week of the moments leading up to the death of 26-year-old Patrick Lyoya, who was killed after a Grand Rapids, Michigan, police officer shot him in the back of the head. The shooting occurred after the officer pulled Lyoya over because the license plates on the car he was in were not registered to that vehicle. After Lyoya started to walk away from the car, the cop grabbed him and a struggle ensued. Lyoya was face down on the ground, with the officer on his back, when the cop shot him.

I know I am 4 months late but this guy is the one at fault for running away and fighting the officer. In any case it was his fault this all happened and it does seem like the officer misfired and instead tried shooting somewhere else that would only harm the criminal.
There's no such thing as police. Cowardly, Criminal Domestic Terrorists, is what they have become.
dont fight a officer and that wont happen lol
All of you defending the cop would be singing a different tune if it was your son, father, brother etc. Again, it is not a death sentence to resist arrest or run from police. It is the job of the police officer to arrest you and let the courts and laws decide your punishment.
WOW. To much. Why would he even pull it out?
Umm okay yeah the public is over reaching. Cop definitely shouldn’t have shot him. But to say the cop escalated the stop is something else.
No call for backup and shot to the head from the back too WOW
Imagine defending the cop. If you or I shoot someone in the back of the head we're doing life.
Cooperation here. Just a little.
Murder for a minor traffic stop!!! WTF
oh yes. fighting a police officer is a very good idea or or fighting just any random dude with a gun is a good idea
He didn’t have to kill him regardless
Guaranteed this man had no clue of what and what was going on ,.. for the officer .. wow ' that was manslaughter ,.. hope u don't go down in this one ,.. u shot a person in the back of the head
It was the guys fault lol. He got out of the car which you’re suppose remain in your vehicle unless do so. Whatever happened it was the guys fault.
😮🔥

Welcome to the land of opportunity
He was wrong tho….
This fool was obviously resisting arrest. Then he overcame the officer's use of the taser. Now the officer cannot hit the suspect, cannot choke the suspect, cannot kick the suspect, so what is his next option to prevent the suspect from going for his gun? Just asking a question.
Wonder what would have happened if he complied ???
😅😂🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😅
The man from Africa probably killed people himself why he did not want to have anything to do with the police and just walked away
Quit acting like the negro was innocent
