Eyewitness Records Santa Ana Officer Shoot, Kill Unarmed Homeless Man

SANTA ANA (CBSLA.com) — An eyewitness recorded cellphone video of a Santa Ana police officer shoot and kill an unarmed 22-year-old homeless man at a shopping center earlier this week.

The witness, who wished to remain unidentified, was standing in the parking lot of the Harbor Place Shopping Center on South Harbor Boulevard around 3 p.m. Tuesday when he said he filmed a confrontation in front of Jugo’s La Tropicana between an officer, later identified as a 13-year veteran, and victim Hans Kevin Arellano.

“She exited her patrol car, gun drawn, and asked the gentlemen to get on the ground. The gentlemen didn’t get on the ground, he was still inside the restaurant. She asked again. The man then exited the restaurant, and as he was exiting the restaurant, he said, ‘What are you gonna do, b—-?’ About a second later, she shot him in the chest,” he said.

CBS2’s Michele Gile showed officers the footage of the incident.

This is old footage. Question is, was she tried for murder or not? No? Well, then why not? He was not a threat to her life in any manner.

You're so clever. I bet they made you detective.

The quality is crappy and the distance is too far to be able to see what the officer saw.

This is nothing new. It's what has become all too common here in the American police state.., murder by cop with no. It's no wonder countries around the world have issued travel warnings to their citizens who may have or want to travel here. Pardon me while I go puke.
