The armed policemen who arrived at the beach were “paralysed by fear”, a Belgian tourist told The Independent, speaking anonymously because she said she was afraid. “Some youths told the police, ‘We’re not afraid of dying, give it [the gun] to us.’” The youths took the gun and ran up to the pool area, shooting in the air to get his attention, but then the gun jammed. The gunman turned around, threw a grenade at them and chased after them.

Badass kids. Bitchass cops. If Tunisian cops are anything like American cops they must have had a stand-down order from above. Not to say that a bitchass american cop is an impossibility, but they shoot people dead over far less than this.

Come to think of it, most mass-murderers end up caught unmolested. It's usually the skittles theives who end up riddled with police hollow points.

the gun jammed

Maybe the cops knew the quality of the gear they had...

With that said, kids drawing fire from other innocent's is beyond a brave action. Gives me a bit of hope for humanity, ya know?

I bet it was a semi-auto and the kid limpwristed it. Not a hard mistake to make without proper training.
