    You can read the shooter’s statement here. He was a former Marine instructor wearing high vis there to protect the protesters. The officer he shot was about to shoot a fleeing protester. He probably saved their life.

      That’s really interesting. I read it couple of times. I can see that a person that presents like this wouldn’t raise an alarm as someone who can’t be trusted. It’s also interesting that he says he was standing in the street in plain view with reflective safety stripes, while the guardian article says he was firing from the woods.

        News usually repeats what the police says, that is what the police stated in court. I could cite at least 100 cases where police have lied in these types of situations. I haven’t seen any actual evidence of where he shot from so I’m not sure.
