Police in Baltimore are investigating the shooting death of an unarmed Marine by an off-duty cop. The officer shot at the Marine 13 times at close range, connecting with six bullets.
It happened early Saturday morning outside a nightclub. Police say officer Gahji Tshamba shot Tyrone Brown because Brown made advances towards a woman Tshamba was with.
"After the advances, the officer and the individual exchanged words," police spokesman Anthony Gugliemi said. "There was an argument, and the altercation turned physical. At that point, the officer pulled out his service weapon and fired multiple shots at our victim."
Brown's sister, La-Belle Scott, who was with her brother at the time of the shooting, said such aggressive behavior on the part of the officer was not necessary.
"There was absolutely no physical contact," Scott said. "The supposed officer was not in any harm whatsoever. He (Brown) had his hands up to show he didn't have no weapons or anything."

Racist prick...just because the cop has a Muslim name, you want to kill the guy or put him in GP.

I didn't read the article, so had no idea he has a muslim name.
Go figure. Maybe this was actually a terrorist act, then.
