Video shows California deputies fatally shooting abducted teen as she surrenders
Source: AP
A teenage girl who had been kidnapped by her father was following a sheriff's deputy's instructions and appeared to be surrendering when other deputies fatally shot her during a gun battle on a Southern California highway, according to recently released video and audio.
Savannah Graziano, 15, was shot and killed as she ran toward San Bernardino County sheriffs deputies amid a hail of gunfire on Sept. 27, 2022. Her father, 45-year-old Anthony Graziano, was also fatally shot.
The San Bernardino County Sheriffs Department released the audio and video clips, including a heavily produced and narrated 15-minute video, on Friday in response to public records requests made by The Associated Press and other media outlets. The deputies did not have body-worn cameras, but video footage was recorded by a sheriffs helicopter and witness dashboard cameras.
Before Savannah and her father were shot, deputies pursued Grazianos pickup truck for some 70 miles (110 kilometers), including along Highway 15. A helicopter crew following the chase reported shots fired from the drivers side. Other shots were fired from the passengers side, according to a deputy and a passing motorist. It is unclear who was shooting from the pickup truck.

I'm expecting cop defenders to defend this. They shot and killed the victim.

Remember, killing in the US is fine, so long as who is killed and who does the killing.
