New Mexico State trooper fires at least three rounds at minivan full of children. |
The power of video, this time from a New Mexico State Trooper's dash cam, captures what at first seems like a routine traffic stop on the side of a road near the Town of Taos, on October 28th.
However, as the video unfolds, it captures a very disturbing scene.
A trooper shooting at least three times at a minivan with 5 children inside, including one as young as 6 years old.
Trooper strikes van with his baton. |
At that point, a New Mexico State trooper begins yelling at Ferrell, then attempts to physically pull Ferrell out of the vehicle.
Ferrell's 14-year old son, then does what any child would do in defending their parent as they are being physically assaulted by a stranger.

Then, as the minivan pulls off, a trooper opens fire on the vehicle, even though there was absolutely no threat whatsoever and nothing warranting use of deadly force.
After a short chase, Ferrell pulls over and she and her 14-year old son are arrested.
NOTE: Those who follow my work, know that I NEVER recommend doing what the mother did in this case, or what the son did.
I always tell people that they should always cooperate with law enforcement during a traffic stop, regardless of the situation.
I also always encourage people to video record the stop, so as to document the incident, for your protection.
But again, ALWAYS cooperate!
DO NOT ever give a trigger-happy cop ANY excuse to shoot you or your loved one!
