My wife was in Indianapolis for a couple days and she saw the same thing: a cop crossed over to the wrong side of the road and up onto the sidewalk to strike an unarmed black man on a bicycle head on. They claimed later that the man on the bike had struck the car while it was sitting still (hard enough to put him in the hospital with a fractured skull). No investigation was made. I think they do this because running people over or choking them to death produces less paperwork than shooting them.

Most Officer on the job injury and death comes from traffic accidents. Driving all day is dangerous. We should log Police Officer hours the same way we do truck drivers.

I thought "accident" when I read that comment first, but on reading it again:

"sidewalk to strike an unarmed black man on a bicycle head on."

So... "to strike" this wasn't an accident?
