I want to first begin this by saying that this story has been shared quite extensively by blacklivesmatter activist as far as twitter goes, the people doing most of the sharing of this story are black, which means there should be no debate of "all lives matter" "black lives matter not white lives" when the story is being shared and popularized by black lives matter. (The thread would eventually go there which is why I am bringing this up now)
Covington said the officer was attempting to arrest Hammond when the teen accelerated the car and drove toward the officer, prompting the officer to shoot in self-defense.The Hammond family commissioned an independent autopsy, which found the evidence was "consistent with (Hammond) being seated in a motor vehicle and being shot from the side of the vehicle through an open driver's side window," according to that report.
Bland said Hammond's wounds indicate the vehicle was not moving, and that the teen was shot on the rear of his shoulder and on the side of his chest.
The second autopsy report also said "it will be critical to evaluate" Hammond's shirt to determine how close he was to the shooter.
