15 Year Old Young Thug Had A Fake Gun, Cop Had A Real One, Guess Which One Walked Away

FRESNO, Calif. (FOX26) — The Fresno Police Department released a Critical Incident Video of an officer-involved shooting from July 30th.

A police officer had responded to the 100 block of E. Warner Ave. around 10:30 a.m. to check on the report of an abandoned vehicle.

While waiting for the vehicle to be towed, he was approached by a person that said there was a young man on a scooter nearby that had a gun.

The officer got in his patrol vehicle and went to investigate the report and spotted a subject that matched the description on N. Effie St.

The officer notified dispatch, pulled to the side of the road, and made contact with the subject.

The officer ordered the subject, who was wearing a ski mask, to raise his hands and get down on his knees.

He got down on his knees but then began to reach for an object in his waistband.

The officer told him to raise his hands, but he continued to reach for the object and pulled a gun from his waistband, resulting in the officer firing his service weapon.

The officer immediately requested paramedics and began to render first aid while they responded.

The subject was taken to the hospital where he was listed in stable condition and expected to recover from his injuries.

It was determined later that the subject was a 15-year-old juvenile.

Police recovered the juvenile’s unloaded Glock 19 X .177 caliber bb pistol, which is a replica of a Glock semiautomatic handgun with all Glock stampings.
