"At 03.48 on Thursday morning, the police relieved deadly shot on Norra Stationsgatan in Vasastan in central Stockholm.

According to information from Aftonbladet, a man has shown a gun for residents at the current address, after which police have been summoned. When the police arrived at the scene, a threatening situation has arisen, and the police have shot with so-called "boots".

At the time of the 06th, the man who was shot has died. He was taken to ambulance to Karolinska Hospital, but his life could not be saved.

Eric Torell, 20, shot dead by the police, was autistic and had Down's syndrome, telling his parents.

The police later decided that the weapon proved to be a plastic weapon.

"The initial data indicate that it was a replica of a real weapon," said prosecutor Martin Tidén." - Aftonbladet

I feel really sorry for this guy and hes relatives. Of course any situation containing guns are hard to handle. But in this case the cops way to took care of buisness is terryfying.

If you were a cop and you saw a 20 year old guy with down syndrome having what seems to be a gun in his hand how would you have handled the situation?
