A homeless man who called the 911 for help is shot over 30 times by police as he attempts to walk away from the police.
Saginaw County Prosecutor Michael Thomas said later that the squad of police confronting him opened fire “because apparently, at this point in time, he was threatening to assault police.”
The local Saginaw Police Chief Gerald Cliff justify the actions of his officer’s saying that Hall was “known to be an assaultive person” with “a long history” of contacts with law enforcement, “not only with police from our department but with the county.
However, the video shows that while he was argumentative the police opened fired on the Hall after a very long argument only after Hall decided to turn his back on the officers and begin walking away.
