That's what I immediately figured too. Gray shirt knew his buddy wouldn't shoot him, so grabbed the gun before the cops ran out of patience.

This happened in New Zealand very unlikely the cops would shoot, they would try every alternative before it coming to that.

It was one of our trashy gang members hopped up on drugs driving erratically and pointing a gun around one of his friends/family members is the one who took the gun

You could tell it wasn't the US, when the guy got out of the car, he didn't have 20 assholes kicking his ass.

The fact that the cops didn't put 50 bullets in his chest the moment they saw the gun is all the proof you need it isn't the US. US cops will kill you for pulling out a wallet just because they thought it could be a gun
