[SZonian]

San Diego-area police shot a man who witnesses said was unarmed with his hands up Tuesday afternoon.

Gunfire rang out around 2 p.m. local time in a parking lot at the Broadway Village Shopping Center in El Cajon, Calif., KNSD-TV reported. Witnesses and family members said that the as-yet-unidentified man shot by police is a mentally-challenged black man.

The man wounded by officers didn't follow their orders when they arrived to the scene, El Cajon police spokesman Rob Ransweiler told reporters at a news conference. The officers showed up at the scene on Broadway and N. Mollison Ave. after three separate radio calls, Ransweiler said.

It appears that African Americans in the USA have their very own form of jihad.  Suicide by cop.

Probably a bad idea to draw on a cop who is pointing their gun at you.
