Thread: Morrinsville Shooting

From the report who fired what.
. Officers B and C collectively discharged a total of 29 9mm bullets at or in the direction of Mr X, nine of which are known to have hit the Holden on the driver’s side and windscreen. None of the bullets are believed to have hit Mr X (and he did not have any wounds or injuries when arrested 12 days later);
 Mr X discharged 16 .762mm bullets from his semi-automatic rifle.2 Of these:
o One bullet hit Officer A’s patrol car. It penetrated the rear passenger door and travelled through the front passenger’s seat, lodging into the inner passenger’s door. It is likely this bullet was fired when Officer A was driving up the driveway.
o Three bullets, which were aimed at Officer B and C’s patrol car, hit Mr X’s Holden. (Shot his own car)!
o Seven bullets hit Officer B and C’s patrol car including the driver’s door, front bonnet and windscreen. The bullets penetrated the engine bay, sump and the front windscreen, with one lodging in the dashboard in front of the driver’s seat.
o The remaining five bullets were not accounted for but are believed to include the initial shots fired at Officer A when Mr X first got out of the Holden.
