US man live-streams his death on Facebook

A man in the US live-streamed his own death on Facebook as a police officer shot him for allegedly acting erratically, and his fiancée watched it all online, helplessly. According to a report in the Sun, Rodney James Hess, 36, was stopped by the police in Alamo, during a traffic stop and killed. "He was acting erratically, having attempted to hit cops with his car at least twice before he was killed on Thursday," the report quoted the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation as saying. The video shows Hess asking to speak to the "higher commands" before leaving his car and then as he tries to move, he is shot through his windscreen."He couldn't get his mind together. That is why he asked for a higher command," Hess' fiancée, Johnisha Provost, said.
