MIAMI (CBSMiami) – On December 10, more than two dozen police officers from across Miami Dade County converged on a blue Volvo that had crashed in the backyard of a townhouse on 65th Street just off 27th Avenue.
As the car was wedged helplessly between a light pole and a tree, nearly a minute passed before officers opened up – firing approximately 50 bullets at the car and the two unarmed men inside the vehicle.
The two men inside the car survived that initial volley of gunfire, according to witnesses, who said they could see the men moving inside the Volvo. Everything went quiet for nearly two minutes before the officers opened up a second time – unleashing an unrelenting torrent of bullets that lasted almost 25 seconds. By the time it was over, the two men inside the car were dead.
CBS4 News has learned a total of 23 officers fired a total of at least 377 rounds.

They simply wanted practice.....
Shooting unarmed people simply because they were in a particular vehicle is a little on the extreme side.
Then starting a second volley while the car's occupants were trying to surrender crosses the line...especially since the command was given to hold fire.
Take the guns away from the cops like they've taken them away from the citizens...the reasoning is the same!
These ARE OBAMA POLICE....
Judge, Jury and Executioners. Why do we have a justice system at all. It seems that a kill order goes out the moment a police officer is injured in the line of duty.
We expect better than this.
of course Cops have no obligation to honor the Constitution of our Country ...because of the insurgent trash who took it over has none himself..Obama is responsible for the total evil that has manifested itself in our public sector mentality.. the arrogance prevails at all levels
Pack mentality is an animal trait,and we ARE animals.
The reason they finally quit firing , they ran out of ammo.
And it just keeps getting better all the time. Don,t you just love the cops?
remember to turn on your headlights when driving in the rain.... its the law.
