Failure to Use Nonlethal Force
from Police Use of Force Hosted by Michael Fortune
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) is investigating a deadly-officer involved shooting Thursday afternoon on Interstate 65 in South Nashville. The shooting happened around 2 p.m. on I-65 between Harding Place and Old Hickory Boulevard. Metro Nashville Police spokesman Don Aaron said a Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper responded to a man sitting on a guardrail on the side of the interstate and offered him a ride home. The 37-year-old man, later identified as Landon Eastep, pushed away from the THP trooper and was observed to be armed with the box cutter. An off-duty Mt. Juliet Police officer driving by the scene stopped to help and talk to Eastep. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/police-use-of-force--4436193/support.
