An unarmed black behavioral therapist, Charles Kinsey, on WMonday was shot 3 times in the leg by police in the state of Florida has he tried taking care of his patient who appears to have an object in his hand.
The unarmed black man in the video was seen on his back while he tries to explain to the police what he is doing with his patient;
All he has is a truck. A toy truck. I’m a behavior therapist at a group home.
Why he was talking with the police on his cellphone (probably 911), the police around the area had their weapon drawn. Though the time of shooting was not captured, and also uncleared why the officer fired his weapon.
The officer that fired his weapon has now been placed under administrative leave, and investigation is ongoing.

Why black lives matter have said black should raise their hands when apprehended by the police, seems like that does not work in Charle's case, and he is lucky t be alive.
