This story should disgust you for several reasons.
First: a kid who is charged with using a stun gun in the death of a robbery victim was ever out on bail in the first place.
Second: When the cops locate the suspect, one fires all 15 rounds in his gun, and the other fires 7 rounds. This is in New York City! WHERE THE HELL DO THEY THINK ALL THE MISSES ARE GONNA GO?!
Maybe the problem is with cops not being selected so much from shooters, being that this is NYC and they are nowhere to be found. Maybe all these urbanite cops know of using their guns is, "Empty the gun into the suspect (or the vicinity) in the hope that that'll be enough to keep you safe from him if he's a threat." Maybe since they are not people who live and breathe "tacticality," they just default to some ultra-simplistic training suggestion and fire blindly until slide-lock, because they don't know any better.
Thoughts?
