San Diego, CA — On January 24, Toby Diller made the mistake of drinking a beer in front of two San Diego cops. Because police claim the right to extort people who drink beer outside of a bar or restaurant, they decided to stop Diller. Moments later Diller would be dead having suffered a police-issued bullet to the head.
Though the incident took place over a month ago, the video was only just released this month.
On that fateful January day, police would claim that Diller was “acting erratically” and that is why they initiated the stop. However, video from a nearby security camera simply shows Diller walking down the sidewalk — harming absolutely no one — while drinking a beer.
The security footage shows police attempt to extort Diller, 31, for drinking the beer, when he takes off running.
“Hold up. Stop. Stop. Police!” an officer yells at Diller who continues to run, likely not wanting to be extorted or arrested for drinking a beer in public. Diller appears to trip and fall before being pounced on by the cops.
After the very brief foot chase, the two cops, SDPD Officers Devion Johnson and Benjamin Downing pin Diller to the ground where a struggle ensues — over a beer can. According to police, Diller grabbed one of the officer’s guns who then told his partner to shoot him.
“He’s got my gun! Shoot him!” Downing says.............read more........
