"In 1997, Storlie shot and wounded Lawrence Miles Jr., who was 15 at the time, in south Minneapolis after Miles ran past him with a BB gun. Storlie shot Miles, believing the teenager was pointing a gun at his partner. Miles and a friend were playing BB-gun tag in the 3600 block of Chicago Av. at 1:30 a.m. when that shooting happened."
Anyone who uses this incident to cast doubt on the abilities of Storlie are crazy. The kid had a gun, was running toward another officer at 1:30 in the morning in a high crime area. If Stolie had not shot I would have been more concerned. I don't know about this current shooting, but Storlie should not have to defend himself all over again for the 1997 shooting in which he did nothing wrong.
