Unarmed Man Shot by Police, Caught on Logging Tape

Two Des Moines (Iowa) police officers shot and seriously wounded a man who was acting erratic, took a discount store employee hostage and threatened that he had a gun, an incident that was captured by a logging recorder during a 911 call. Daniel Carter survived the shooting, and police now say he did not have a gun. An employee of the store dialed 911 when he entered the store, telling a dispatcher, “He says he has a gun on him.” Officers arrived, and confronted Carter as the employee stayed on the phone with the dispatcher.
