Above is more accurate headline than the one used in stltoday.com (St Louis Post Dispatch) headline:
"Robbery suspect fatally shot by officer at St. Louis fast food restaurant"
Blah, blah, blah; yadda, yadda, yadda for three paragraphs after we've read headline & are into fourth paragraph before seeing the most relevant info:
"The gunman raised his handgun toward the sergeant..." bbm
Until then, just a "robbery suspect."
Nothing about "handgun."
Nothing about raising "handgun toward sergeant."
Hmmm, reporting bias? editing bias? Or ?
"There were multiple witnesses inside the restaurant, [SLPD Lt Col.] OToole said. There is also video footage from the restaurant."
""Everything appears to be exactly as weve heard from witnesses who are cooperating with the investigation, OToole said, adding that officers also recovered a gun that they believe the suspect used during the robbery."
"... sergeant involved ... was not equipped with one [body cam], sources said. The department has about 30 cameras that will rotate among about 90 of the departments 200 sergeants."
