[Video below.] Police in Pasco, Washington, have come under fire after a cellphone video emerged of several officers pursuing then shooting an unarmed homeless man to death after he was throwing rocks.
Antonio Zambrano-Montes, 35, was throwing rocks at cars outside a supermarket when police encountered him.
The video shows Montes being chased across a street by police then collapsing to the ground after being shot. More than a dozen people witnessed the shooting, some of whom said officers fired as many as 13 shots.
The Seattle Times reports that this is the fourth fatal police shooting in Pasco in the last six months.

You won’t hear much about it. He wasn’t black. Publicizing this would show that all the other ones weren’t either racial, just some bad cops – and that cannot happen…
The video is very troubling. I did not see what led up to that chase, but it didn’t seem that he posed any danger to anyone. I hope those stupid white Liberal cops get what they deserve.
Where is the UN? Where is the International press?
Why don’t they give the homeless a homeland so they won’t throw rocks
But when Israel does the same to the terrorists, the world goes crazy!
Unarmed? He was throwing rocks!
I understand that throwing rocks in Israel is considered a terrorist attack. Rocks can and have killed. Maybe the cops saw something that isn’t visible in the video.
This was absolute racism. They thought it was a black man; otherwise, they wouldn’t have shot him.
