they don’t mention the acorn in that article 🙄 but it’s in the police report, which is quite the read: https://www.sheriff-okaloosa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/IA-2023-031-Final-Report-Jackson.pdf

his partner shot at the guy in the car too. Apparently the suspect had been patted down twice so they knew he was unarmed. Luckily he was okay but how terrifying would that be!

the officer is going “I’m shot!” and groaning for 2 minutes in the video (he was not shot)
