A Las Vegas man who was pro gun bans and wanted to give up our gun rights F.A.A.F.O. Why that was a bad idea. When he called police for help during a home invasion before an officer fatally shot him, according to authorities and 911 calls. Brandon Durham called 911 early Nov. 12, saying he was hiding with his 15-year-old daughter after someone broke into his home, Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren said. Durham is heard pleading with the dispatcher to “send someone ASAP” in audio recordings obtained this week by KVVU-TV in Las Vegas.
Koren identified the officer who shot Durham as Alexander Bookman, 26. Bookman was one of the first officers to arrive and kicked in the front door. Koren said the officer found Durham in a hallway struggling over a knife with the intruder. In a short clip of body camera video released by police, the officer yells for them to drop the knife, but since they didn’t comply and he feared for his life & not anybody else’s he then fires one round to the head. Durham and the intruder both fall to the floor, then the officer moves closer and fires five more justified rounds while standing over them because he feared for his life. Durham, 43, died in his home. Koren said Durham and the intruder knew each other. The intruder was arrested and charged with home invasion and assault. The officer was put on paid leave and is expected to be promoted when he returns. He passed his initiation test & is now a member of the biggest most dangerous gangs in America. With the highest kill/death rate then any other gang, it’s no wonder u have to kill someone just to get in #LasVegas #LVPD #Durham #Bookman #Explore #FYP
