A man who was shot by police and later died had to wait 10 extra minutes for an ambulance after an officer having a “mild anxiety attack” took the first one that arrived at the scene, according to a newly released state investigation.

Dyshan Best, 39, was shot in the back last year as he fled from officers in Bridgeport, Connecticut. A report released Tuesday by the state’s inspector general found that the shooting was justified because Best had a gun in his hand and the officer pursuing him had reasons to fear for his own safety.

But the report raised questions about what took place after the March 31 shooting, which left Best, who was Black, bleeding with severe internal injuries.

      Sure, but the original question was “how did Trump win the election?” Which means “Gerrymandering” is an objectively incorrect answer.

      If you wanted to discuss the electoral college, and how it reduces the entire election down to only a few states, (and how Trump didn’t win the popular vote in 2016, which should have ended his political career entirely, but he still beat Hillary in the Electoral College so he ended up in office), then that would be a valid answer. But you didn’t mention the electoral college at all, and pointed to a red herring instead.
