Police Killed An Unarmed White Man In Iowa And His Community Didn't Seem To Notice

A few minutes before Des Moines police killed Ryan Keith Bolinger Tuesday night, the 28-year-old white man was dancing in the street, according to an officer. Police didn't find the display funny. In a news conference Wednesday, Des Moines Police Sgt. Jason Halifax said Bolinger had earlier pulled up beside the squad car of an officer who was conducting an unrelated traffic stop, parking his 2000 Lincoln sedan so close that he blocked the police cruiser's driver's side door. Bolinger then left his vehicle and danced around before getting back in and driving away.

Officer Vanessa Miller, a seven-year veteran of the force, gave pursuit, following Bolinger in a low-speed chase that hovered around the 35 miles-per-hour limit, officials said. The Des Moines Register reports that Officer Ian Lawler, who had earlier been boxed in by Bolinger, radioed that he was joining Miller in the pursuit. He also suggested that they may be dealing with a drunk or mentally ill suspect.

About two minutes into the chase, Miller cut Bolinger off as he attempted to make a U-turn, forcing his car to a stop. Bolinger exited his vehicle and approached Miller's squad car "walking with a purpose," Halifax said. As he advanced, Miller, who is white, fired a single bullet through her rolled up driver's side window, shattering the glass and striking Bolinger in the torso. He later died from the gunshot wound at a local hospital.

  1. Wow! A joke. And the coo thinks he is a Dr saying he is mentally ill. Walking without a weapon purposely now is reason to get you killed. The female cop was so scared lmao. Right! Scared! Like most cops. She could've sat in her car while her partner tasered him ?maced him? Beat him with a baton? This woman/ officer needs prosecuted. Many female officers need reevaluated.

  3. Before jumping to conclusions, perhaps it would be better to keep one's mouth shut until the actual facts surface. We would be wise to wait for the "rest of the story".

  5. Wait for the story? He had no weapon. The police would be quick to add that to cover their asses. It said he was walking with a purpose. I guess that is fine with you sheeple. Not for me and most of the country. If the coo was so worried she could've backed up in her car. And as above had a partner who could've gotten out at a safer distance and deployed less then lethal. But you cop lovers have tunnel vision. All you see is police urethral canals.
