Ho they do sometimes
When?
That's a list of deaths directly connected to police in the UK.
Where is the evidence to support the claim that they were killed within seconds and without warning?
Aside from the shoot to kill policy after 9/11 which led to an innocent man being stalked by police then without warning held down and immediately shot seven times in the head.
You're right. Deaths under that policy would have been classed as a lawful killing, and I've noticed that I've changed the OPs question erroneously. Thank you.
The question should have read "murdered within seconds and without warning".
Title could be "two buddy on an relaxing bike ride" and i would've believe it
Dunno why they nicked him, he said himself, he ain't dun nuffing.
I really thought that was a skit at first.
Its somewhat of a pun on the Favela motorcycle chase video that circulated here a few days ago.
Because of the stupid music
That's the laziest riding I've seen in a while
There was no reason to go any faster. He wasn't an immediate danger and they were just following him until he could be safely stopped. No need to escalate anything.
I'm talking also about the guy being chased
Apparently I'm not operating on enough sleep. 👍
The guy who was chased neither.
I think it’s probably faster and going harder than we think but yeah, it looked pretty relaxed didn’t it
The speedometer shows ~8-10kmh
UK uses miles, so I guess mph, which is way faster.
Eww
But that's still only 16kmh, which is very slow for cycling
I saw a lot of twelves there, which is 19kmh. While dodging trash bins and trying not to kill anyone, this is a reasonable speed. Not for a competitive cyclist of course.
I think the video was doctored to be even slower....
Yeah…. Nah. I used to race bikes and this lot are barely peddling lol
Jon Baker and Poncherello going to UK
This is the opposite of Brazil chases
Honestly edge of my seat the whole time.
That cop rides like my grandmother.
I watched this muted, but my windows are open and there’s a bunch of sirens outside so this was a very exciting chase!
I really wanted to see a pit maneuver
Thrilling chase.
High octane maneuver at about the 1 minute mark.
I was waiting for them to do some parkour on their bicycles
Is this a new video game?
All it needed was yakkity sax
