Middle of the night, cops pull over a suspicious vehicle based on some phone calls from residents, driver gets out waving a knife. Cops tell him to put it down, he does not. One thing leads to another, the cop fires his weapon, guy goes down, but not dead. All in the local newspaper.

Then the next day, it turns out it was a headshot with like a .40 Glock I think. The guy lives! Amazing, it seems.
A forty to the head? Ouch. Most cops carry 9mm for insurance/policy reasons, but a .40 should have done the job. They needed hydroshocks!!

Just wait and see if people start saying the cops using a gun vs a knife was over doing it! I'm kinda proud the cop was actually able to pull off the head-shot.

He should've tried 'suicide-by-stripclub-worker'. My .357 hollow points would've done the job.
