Chicago's Officer Joseph Treacy and Sergeant Thomas Derouin were found to have acted 'within department policy' in the 2016 death of 25-year-old Joshua Bealof Indianapolis by the Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA). Treacy and Derouin fired 18 shots at Beal between the two of them, hitting him six times. As Derouin fired his final round, Beal was found to have been pointing a gun at him, the COPA report said. Even if Beal was no longer at threat near the end of the gunfire, the report said there was not time for Treacy and Derouin 'to perceive and process that the threat had dissipated.' In harrowing video released with the COPA panel's report, the shots can be heard and in another clip people are seen tending to Beal on the ground, at right. 👮🏻‍♂️

The Volvo-owned French company, which focuses on battlefield-ready vehicles, has named its new light tank Scarabée, or beetle. It has two engines in the back - one electric and one diesel - which help it reach top speeds of 75mph, despite weighing 6.6 tonnes. Each of the vehicle's wheels are powered, which gives it its crab-like ability to drive sideways - which can be used to avoid mines with ease. A spokesperson for Aquus said: 'That way you can approach the enemy without either turning your back to him or being full front on, but you could also drive crab-like behind a ridge, for example, and yet still have your roof-top gun with its limited turn radius pointing at the enemy.'

Dubbed the 'HP Robocop', it was unveiled this week by the Huntington Park police department to 'keep a watchful eye on the public'. Described as an 'autonomous data machine', it is equipped with 360-degree video cameras, which will then be able to relay video footage to human police. It will beam this data to police headquarters in order to facilitate fast and safe responses from police officers. 👮🏻‍♂️ #future
