re: Male was shot after a seat belt violation

My question is why did the cop pull his gun in the first place? Yeah the kid was moving a little fast, but the cop was shooting him before he even came out of the car.

No excuse for this. The kid is lucky the cop was a terrible shot. Who else might he have hit with that pistol? If he'd killed anyone else, the department would just write it off as 'collateral damage'.
