BS excuse for sure. If you can't tell the difference between a handgun and a stun gun you are clearly incompetent and not fit to be a police officer. It would be much better if he just said, "I pulled my gun and in the commotion I made a mistake." Trying to make up nonsense excuses only makes the situation worse.
I still don't believe he shot the guy on purpose but just the same he should probably be in jail. That female officer that was trying to get the camera from one of the witnesses should be reprimanded as well. She has no right to demand a private citizen's camera like that and it makes it look like her intent was to cover things up.
Unfortunately this situation has already been used as an excuse for some knuckleheads to do some looting and rioting. I hope the powers that be in Oakland and SF are smart enough to take steps to prevent this from spiraling out of control.
