It may not be a he said he said jsut yet.

FIRST, we have only heard what the cop has said in one report.

We have not heard what Steve Foley is going to say.

There is alos other types of evidence that can colelcted:

1)The officer's call to police when he started to follow Foley . (The updated story says he followed Foley from 163 and 52 to Poway. That's 10 miles or so on Freeways that average 65-75 miles an hour. And it says he called for backup immediately.)

2)The statement from the woman in the car.

3)Physcial evidence like skid marks/etc *if8 the car was being driven at the officer.

4)The location of the warning shots, the locaiton of the shell, the location of the car.

5)Witnesses who lived in the cul-de-sac where the pursuit ended.

6)If Steve Foley was drunk or not. (The hospital should be able to shed some light on this.)

My point is that people are taking sides without us knowing this evidence.

If this was Rodney King, Al Sharpton or Al Gore I'd be *very very* suspicous of the officer's account. in this case *I have no idea what really happened*.

We've had bad cops in San Diego before (some have been convicted of robebry, rape and murder.)

But it sounds like an entirely plausible account of what could have happened.

Again, I do not know what happened. It's bad when a cop shoots anyone. I am not in favor of shootings.

And I am neutral on who did what in this case.

If this cop did anything wrong he should prosecuted for it. No one is above the law.
