Cop Says He Thought Sean Bell Was Trying To Run Him Over
A second NYPD cop who fired his gun at Sean Bell and his friends testified today that he saw another officer raise his gun and thought the Queens man was trying to run them over.

Carey said he thought Bell was trying to run the cops over.
“I didn’t think anything was an accident,” he said. “My conclusion after the first collision was that I believed they had intent to injure us.”
