Robbery suspect was shot six times by Oklahoma City cop after stabbing police dog: medical examiner

The autopsy report on an Oklahoma City robbery suspect who stabbed a police dog does not match the law enforcement department’s initial report on the officer-involved shooting.


The agency is currently reviewing a medical examiner report that suggest Mark Salazar was gunned down while running away during the Aug. 24 incident.

It’s not clear if homicide charges will be filed against Stark who reportedly opened fire after failing to pull the dog and 22-year-old suspect apart as he fled the scene of a robbery, according to the Oklahoman.


The Oklahoman reports Salazar was gunned down while running away, citing a medical examiner report. He was shot four times in the back and punctured his lungs, liver, stomach and pancreas. He was also shot in the left arm and left thigh.

In addition to the six gunshot wounds, Salazar had puncture wounds on his body, but it’s not clear if they were dog bites from when Kye caught up to the suspect and tackled him during the case.

“Decedent ignored the police warnings to stop and surrender,” the report stated, according to the Oklahoman. “Decedent got up and ran away from the officer, when shots were fired. Decedent dropped to the ground, lying prone.”

The report was compiled by a medical examiner investigator who went to the scene of the crime after the shooting.

Stark was previously on administrative leave following the shooting, but is not on desk duty while the department finds a new police dog.

LOL at the copsucker's comments.

Wonder what they think when a cop kills a mundane's dog, which happens much much more often.

And a Mundane's dog does not get a "Hero of the Soviet Union" style funeral.

Police Chief Asked Medical Examiner to Change Autopsy Report To Match Officer Testimony, He Does

http://thefreethoughtproject.com/police-chief-requests-medical-examiner-change-autopsy-report-match-officer-testimony/

Late last month, 22-year-old Mark Salazar was shot 6 times and killed by Sgt. Ryan Stark of the Oklahoma City Police Department. When the story first hit the news, police told the media a number of lies about the case. The police said that Salazar was under the influence of drugs and that he had stolen a car, but both of those claims were later proven to be false.
Many other details about the case were also highly disputed, including the events which led up to Salazar’s death.
The police say that Stark fired his weapon because he felt that he was in danger, and they also claim that Salazar was in the middle of stabbing a k-9 unit when he was shot.
The k-9 unit allegedly died just after the incident, but the police have not put forward any hard evidence to support these claims, aside from the dead body of the dog. Initially, the medical examiner found that Salazar was attempting to flee while he was shot, and that he was shot six times, including four times in the back. The death was ruled a homicide.
The family hired an independent examiner to do an autopsy and they came to the same conclusion. These findings contradicted the version of events as told by police department. So Police Chief Bill Citty, with the Oklahoma City Police Department, called the medical examiner and ordered them to take another look at their report.

The medical examiner took another look at the report and found that everything did in fact go exactly as the police had described it, and apologized for the “errors” on their initial report.
“Mark had been shot in the back multiple times from a distance. Not while he was on the ground wrestling with a dog, but as he was attempting to flee. There was a larger concern about the dog than there was about the human life,” Noble McIntyre, the Salazar family’s attorney said.

Maybe if he had only locked the police dog in a hot police car, he would have only gotten shot twice.

Regardless if it's a mundane or cop dog, a dead dog sucks. Dog murderers are the same as homicidal manics in my book....
