Just for the sake of accuracy, the victim here wasn't 'shot dead as soon as they answered the door[0].'

Not that 'shot dead from across the street as soon as his hand twitched' is justifiable.

The article you reference currently says just this:

“A male came to the front door,” Livingston said. “As he came to the front door, one of our officers discharged his weapon.”

Perhaps it previously had some other claim about the circumstances, but if so it has since been revised to remove it.

Watch the body camera video in the same article.
