Alfred Olango (38), an unarmed black man, was shot by police officers on Tuesday. The evidences of this incident are two videos. The first video is from a cellphone and the second is from a fast-food restaurant security camera.
The videos show that Richard Gonsalves, who is a police officer, was following Olango to the park area. Then, he pointed his weapon to him. However, Olango briefly clasped his hand while Olango’s sister was crying there. Suddenly, a second officer whose name is Josh Mc. Daniel appeared holding a Taser. After that, Gonsalves fired. At least 4 shots were heard at that time. El Cajon Police Chief Jeff Davis said that the department still doing the investigation to collect the other evidences.
I am so sad for Olango and his family. I am sure, they never imagined that Olango will be shot for no reason. Maybe there will be any reasons, but we have not known yet. I wish the authorities would find the reason as soon as possible.
