Hmm.. I sure am curious to know more details. Round Rock police shoot, kill armed woman

Tazer didn't subdue her?
I'm misinformed.

Yeah and pepper balls..
Pepper balls are some serious pain. First impact then poof pepper powder all up in your personal space.

Maybe they missed her completely with them.

Yeah could be.. that powder hangs in the air pretty well though.
I hope we hear more details

What the heck was she doing with a firearm in a +51% place? (since it said "club" I'm assuming a typical bar/club. Probably not a Bridge club, or book club, or knitting club - but I've been wrong before).

 

[Shotgun Jeremy]

Maybe she was drugged up?

Less lethal and non lethal tools are not always effective. I have shot people with pepper balls many times with no effect. One was a person waving a knife at us. The pepper spray or power is only 85% effective give or take. IMO it is pretty worthless on the whacked out people. Given the time and location I am curious to know hear BAC (blood alcohol content). When the family sues, some ambulance chasing attorney will claim the police "agitated her for no reason" by shooting her with the pepper ball and tazer.

Yeah nothing is ALWAYS effective.. especially when intoxicated. Still, I'm surprised those methods didn't work, or maybe they did and she was just determined. I bet if they had offered he a beer that would have subdued her.
