FWIIW, this was all over her not making her bed. That's a real proportional response to being asked to clean up after herself.

All I’ve learned from this situation is that people would rather have someone stab people than have a cop do anything about it, I hope none of you are ever in a life or death situation because you’d probably die then blame it on the cops.

Since some of you all under this post seem to be illiterate, READ the entire article. The girl who was shot was not the aggressor. She was fending for herself against TWO adult women who were attempting to harm her. She was the one in need of assistance! READ! It’s fundamental!

JohnsonYelaine Y couldn’t the cop just shoot her hand where the knife was? Y do they always have to go for the kill shot even when it’s a teenage girl? I get she was about to stab some1 but in the movies they always shoot the hand why in real life do you have to shoot to kill in this situation?

Instant justice is the best justice?

What crime was she committing?

Did I see the one girl kick the other girl while she was down in front of the cop?

The truth is the uSA police know whom to protect and not blacks!!! You can do that yourself better than them💔💔

Well all we know today the police just shoot and kill they don't tackle they don't try to grab anything they just shoot and kill shoot and kill shoot and kill shoot and kill

Why is it always necessary for Police to fatally shoot.We do nit see in ither countries. Don't Police have any basic training in de-escalating a situation. Seems not & this is an uniquely USA problem. Another life taken with family & community destroyed.

The kids are getting younger and younger.

Damned good shot. Cop saved Pinkie's life and deserves hero treatment....in this case, imo

How does this girl become the one being judged when other people came on HER property to harm her? I’ve been in a situation like this before where I had to defend myself and never thought I would be killed for it. Smh. Praying for the family

It's what happens when you try to kill someone in front of a cop. You get shot.

If you say abolish the police. Take a second read the fucking article. Lunging at people with a knife is not justifiable. And as a police officer doing their job which is to protect and serve letting this 15 year old stab someone is not them doing their job.

People are actually disputing this? The girl was about to get stabbed right before the officer shot the threat.

I think it’s finally time to get rid of cops and replace them with cyborgs

Columbus police show video of officer fatally shooting girlCOLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Police shot and killed a teenage girl Tuesday afternoon in Columbus just as the verdict was being announced in the trial for the killing of George Floyd. Police showed bodycam footage Tuesday night at a news conference of the officer shooting the girl, who was Black, as she appeared to attempt to stab two people with a knife. A black-handled blade resembling a kitchen knife or steak knife appeared to be lying on the sidewalk next to her immediately after she fell. Breonna Taylor. George Floyd. Daunte Wright. Adam Toledo. Makiyah Bryant. And so many others. Does it look like this will end anytime soon? Crash course in American supremacy. Appeared to show. It does show. She was attempting to murder people. The cop saved lives. Actually she was trying to stab another girl. Get fucked AP! You divide this country
