From the Libertarian Republic: A Florida man who, after being spotted not wearing a seatbelt and subsequently fleeing on foot, was ultimately run over by an officer in a cruiser.

The suspect was killed instantly.

*Warning* The video is somewhat graphic

Marlon Brown was on the run from a seatbelt violation, sprinting through a vegetable garden when DeLand police decided to end the foot chase by running him down with their cruiser. A second before Brown was killed he turned to put his hands in the air. But it was too late for officers who decided to take his life.

Officer James Harris decided to run over Brown, killing him instantly. The Chief of Police William Ridgway fired Officer Harris after reviewing the video. However, last week a grand jury found that the officer will not face criminal charges. A $500,000 settlement was reached and the family is pushing for an independent investigation.
