美国一黑人女子报警反遭警察枪杀

就因为凌晨时分房门大敞，“多管闲事”的邻居报了个警，美国一女子被警察枪杀在自己家中。

事情发生在美国德克萨斯州沃斯堡市。当地时间上周六凌晨2点30分左右，28岁的黑人女子杰斐逊(Atatiana Koquice Jefferson)家的房门大开、灯全亮着。无意间看到这一幕的邻居詹姆斯史密斯(James Smith)出于对他这位邻居的担忧，就给当地警方打了个报警电话。

警方到达杰斐逊的住所附近后，没有立即进入她的房子，而是绕着她的住所搜寻了一番。当他们看见房子里的一扇窗户旁站着一个人影后，一名警察竟直接扣动了他手枪的扳机，枪杀了杰斐逊。

枪击事件发生数小时后，警方公布了一份经过大量编辑的、由该警员的随身记录仪记录下的监控画面。

The nearly 2-minute video shows officers walking outside the home with flashlights for a few minutes before one of them yells, "Put your hands up! Show me your hands!" and shoots his weapon through a window.

这段近两分钟的视频显示，警察拿着手电筒在屋外走了几分钟，然后其中一名警察喊道：“举起手来!让我看看你的手!”并通过窗户向屋内开枪。

In a statement, police said the officers entered the home and gave the woman medical treatment, but she died at the scene.

警方在一份声明中说，警察进入了这名女子的家中，对她进行了救治，但她当场死亡。

Police have not named the officer, who joined the department in April of last year. The officer has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.

警方没有透露这名去年4月加入警局的警员的姓名。该名警员已被停职，等待调查结果。

出于对邻居的关心而报警，却导致邻居被无辜枪杀，杰斐逊的邻居史密斯感到非常不安。

Smith, the neighbor who called police, told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that he knew Jefferson was home with her nephew when he saw the doors of the house open, and was concerned about them.

向警方报警的邻居史密斯告诉《沃斯堡星电报》，当他看到房子的门开着的时候，他知道杰斐逊和她的侄子在家里，他很担心他们。

He told the newspaper he was trying to be a good neighbor and called authorities so they could check on Jefferson.

他告诉《沃斯堡星电报》，他本想当个好邻居，并打电话给有关部门，以便他们查看杰斐逊的情况。

"I'm shaken. I'm mad. I'm upset. And I feel it's partly my fault," he told the newspaper. "If I had never dialed the police department, she'd still be alive."

“我很不安。我心烦意乱。我快疯了。我觉得这在一定程度上是我的错，”他告诉《沃斯堡星电报》。“如果我没有给警察打电话，她就不会死。”

此外，他表示当时没有发生家暴或争吵，警察不应采取如此激进的执法方式。

The concerned neighbor, James Smith, told local television station WFAA that he never intended for an aggressive law enforcement response.

深感不安的邻居詹姆斯史密斯对当地电视台WFAA表示，他从没想到(警方)会采取激进的执法行动。

"No domestic violence, no arguing," he said. "Nothing that they should have been concerned with, as far as them coming with guns drawn to my neighbor's house," Smith said. "There wasn't any reason for a gunshot that I know of," he said. "She wasn't a threat."

史密斯说道：“没有家庭暴力，没有争吵。就他们带着枪来到我邻居的房子而言，没有什么是他们应该担心的。据我所知，当时没有任何理由会发生枪击。她不构成威胁。”
