Hello, Officer. Please Shoot Me.

On May 27, 2003, Dustin Lowe struggled with police officers outside of a Billings Heights casino when they wanted to question him. During the struggle, a police officer hit him the the butt of a gun; when Lowe broke free and ran, the same officer shot four times, hitting Lowe with three of the bullets. Lowe survived, and now he's got a great story for this whole misunderstanding: he was a victim of police brutality. Based on the facts of the case so far, I might buy this. But then, Lowe is dumb enough to admit that he was using methamphetamines that day, and, oh yeah, he told the police he had a gun while they were trying to subdue him. Lessee, he was high on crank, and he told police he was armed? And then, he actually admitted all of this in court? Hmmm. Note to self: stop taking crank.
