- ourmandave 10y agoThe department announced this week that the robot approached from behind and took the suspect's rifle as he was lying down on his belly to face a battery of SWAT team members assembling to take him down. The robot was being controlled by an officer like an RC car. This makes it sound like the robot acted autonomously.
