The San Bernardino county sheriff’s department was responding to a 911 call on Saturday from a family reporting that a boy, identified as Ryan Gainer, was attacking his family at their home

If you watch the actual video the sheriff goes into the house to find him and the teenager comes charging out trying to attack him. The officer did leave, he fled while telling him to stop. He didn't stop and continued to chase him with the weapon and he was shot.

That's why they shouldn't call the cops when a person of color is involved. The police will just kill them.

As ADA Krause said in the Rittenhouse trial said, "We all take a beating sometimes."
