Pro tip: don't stab a cop while resisting arrest and you'll probably be okay
/Ah, nostalgia — Madison morons dig out their old BLM posters and WuHan Flu masks from their closets and hit the streets again.
“This never should have happened. Mr. Ruiz should still be alive.”
Wisconsin knifeman Corey Ruiz killed by cops in caught-on-camera shooting was serial felon
The Wisconsin man who was killed by police after knifing a cop was a violent ex-con with a lengthy arrest record, including for battery on police officers, according to records.
Corey Ruiz was identified by state Rep. Shelia Stubbs, a Democrat, who said Ruiz “should still be alive” after police in Madison killed him while trying to arrest the man — whom authorities said had attacked cops with a knife.
Protesters have flooded the streets of Madison, Wisconsin, where the shooting happened and local black activists have seized on the killing.
“Another black man is dead on a Madison street, and our community watched him die before we even knew his name,” said Brandi Grayson, the head of the Madison-based black community advocacy group Urban Triage “That is the cruelty of state violence.”
Before they even knew his name or what he’d done or why he was shot, but what do facts have top do with it?
No idea who he is (was)
Police were responding to calls that someone was attempting to enter parked vehicles in the neighborhood, Patterson said. The suspect fled on a bike through nearby backyards in an attempt to get away before officers contacted him in the street, Patterson said.
The suspect either fell off of his bike or was taken off of his bike by officers and during the struggle pulled out a knife and injured an officer, Patterson said.
An officer deployed a taser but it was unsuccessful, the chief said. The same officer who was injured by the knife fired his weapon and the man who was shot died later at the hospital, the chief said. He described the officer who fired his weapon as a veteran officer, but did not reveal any other details.
