幸运的是,儿子无生命危险。

去年9月,生活在德克萨斯州达拉斯的一个白人女警误闯黑人邻居家,却把主人当入室强盗打死。

上周六,同样在达拉斯,又发生了一起警察误杀入室者的事件。而这次,他射中的是自己的儿子。

A Texas police officer shot his adult son Saturday, thinking he was an intruder.

周六,德克萨斯州的一名警察把儿子当成非法入室者,开枪射中了他。

Dispatchers received a call around 6 p.m. CDT from a man reporting a shooting at his home. The man said he was an off-duty Dallas officer who mistook his son for an intruder and accidentally shot him, according to a release from the DeSoto Police Department. DeSoto is a city south of Dallas.

调度员在下午6点左右接到电话,一男子报警称他家发生枪击事件。据DeSoto警察局发布的消息,这名男子表示,他是一名下班的达拉斯警官,他误以为儿子是非法入室者,不小心射中了他。DeSoto是达拉斯南部的一个城区。

When officers arrived on scene, they found the victim bleeding from his right forearm. The victim was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, the release said.

当警员赶到现场时,发现受害人右前臂流血。消息称,受害者被送往医院,没有生命危险。

目前该警员及儿子的具体身份并未公布,也不确定他开的是执勤用枪或是自己的枪。警方发言人出面解释了该警员为什么会把儿子误认为非法入室者。

The garage door was opened. There were some doors that were locked that had not been locked when he left. It caused him to have some concern that there was something in the house and then things happened very quickly.

车库门开了。有些他走时没锁的门这会儿却锁上了。种种迹象让他担心房子里有别人闯入,接下来的事情发生得很快。

由于事件性质被认定为一场意外,现场并未逮捕任何人。

"It was a startling situation, it was an accident," Pete Schulte, DeSoto police spokesman, told CNN affiliate KTVT-TV. "And fortunately, we're very happy that it did not result in serious bodily injury or death."

DeSoto警方发言人皮特·舒尔特接受采访时表示:“现场情况令人震惊,的确是个意外,”“幸运的是,没有发生严重的人身伤害或死亡。”

No charges have been filed and no arrests were made, Schulte said.

舒尔特说,目前警方没有提出任何指控,也没有逮捕任何人。

"The DeSoto Police Department has treated this like every other case that we would have had and we would've handled it the exact same way that if any charges are appropriate later on, they'll be forwarded over to the DA's office for them to make a decision," Schulte said.

舒尔特说:“DeSoto警察局对这起案件和其他案件一视同仁,我们也会以完全相同的方式处理它,如果后续有任何指控,案件会被转交给地方检察官办公室,由他们做出决定。”

但这样的说法并不能让网友完全信服:

问句“是谁”可好?

有次我把我哥当成入侵者了。然后我问“是谁?”我也没开枪打他啊。

#达拉斯警察有过度执法的问题。

又一起美国警察误杀案!这次他射中了自己的儿子

如果美国警察在没有充分评估情况下第一反应是拔枪开火,这就真的是有问题了。

还有一些人讽刺道,莫非他儿子是黑人?

他儿子是个黑人吧。

又一起美国警察误杀案!这次他射中了自己的儿子

我敢打赌他儿子是个黑人。

也有不少网友批评起美国国内枪支泛滥的现象,以及政府监管不力。

就这,还说让人人都拥有一把枪。

更有网友发出灵魂一问:

又一起美国警察误杀案!这次他射中了自己的儿子

美国都已经不安全到这种地步了?得要先开枪,然后再确认这人是不是入侵者?

你怎么看待美国频发的警察误杀事件?
