The story does not pass the smell test.

I will wait to hear more on this, keeping in mind that it is Detroit.

According to Stephens, the woman "embraced the officer from behind, causing the holstered weapon to accidently discharge."

I'm clearly going to hell, but I'm not the only one thinking it.

Department issued Glock in "soft waist holster" gets the girl shot through the lung and heart because of a hug from behind? Smell-test fail

The article i read alluded to the weapon being a m&p. This incident brings a whole new meaning to the term money shot.

obviously it was an XD and she had a vacuum in her hand.

Sounds like the lady found on a Kay county road with 5 rounds into the chest from a .38.
Gun in her hand. Ruled a suicide by the DA.

Must have been a coffee table present as well.

Someone knows what actually happened here. We may never hear, unless someone steps up to tell the real story. But, Detroit PD almost certainly wants this story to disappear and the MSM is happy with another story that demonstrates how randomly dangerous guns are. The truth? Who cares?
