This just happened on Tuesday 11/12/2024. Despite the dispatcher clearly identifying the home invasion suspect the officer immediately shoots and kills the homeowner.

A Metro Police officer shot an innocent man in the head early Tuesday while responding to reports of a break-in, and then stood over the man’s motionless body and shot five more rounds, officials said Thursday.

Wow. Clearly he wasn’t thinking clearly.

The officers will get them a nice two week pay vacation and we're back on the job by the by the end of Thanksgiving holiday rest in peace to the victim.

Man who called 911 for help shot and killed by Las Vegas police officer
Posted 5:26 PM, Nov 14, 2024 and last updated 56 minutes ago

LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is sharing more details about a deadly shooting by one of its officers.

A press conference on Thursday gave us more insight into what happened early Tuesday morning at a residence near Sunset Park.

The man who police say made the call for help is the one who was shot and killed by Officer Alexander Bookman.

Around 12:40 a.m. Tuesday, police say 43-year-old Brandon Durham told 911 dispatchers that he was inside his home with his 15-year-old daughter and two people were trying to get inside.

He told dispatchers he was locking himself in a bathroom. But when police arrived, Asst. Sheriff Dori Koren says they heard screaming and found Durham struggling with the suspect, a 31-year-old woman Alejandra Boudreaux.

Officer Bookman ordered them to drop the knife before shooting and killing Durham.

"So in terms of whether the officer was aware of the identity, this incident happened less than 72 hours ago, technically," Koren said. "We're still very early into the investigation. I can't speculate on exactly what the officer knew at the time or what the perception of the threat was at the time."

Boudreaux was taken into custody and is facing multiple charges including one count of home invasion and assault with a deadly weapon.

Police also say Boudreaux and Durham knew each other.

In a previous statement, LVMPD said Officer Bookman is 26 years old and has been employed by the department since 2021.

There are a lot of unanswered questions in this investigation, which Metro officials say is still in the early stages.

"An examination of this incident is being conducted by the LVMPD Critical Incident Review Team," officials stated. "This review focuses on policy, tactics, and training as it related to this use of force."

They should charge him with murder. The dispatcher clearly describes the assailant yet deputy dumbass shoots the half naked homeowner who obviously has just awakened to his house being robbed. This is typical of so many cops around the country. They get away with murder and they're trigger happy jack nuts looking for someone to shoot. Not all but way too many are like that RIP to all of the innocent people killed by trigger happy morons

Imagine getting killed in your home by the police and not the intruder.
