Police officer Zachary Rolfe did not have “reasonable” grounds to shoot Kumanjayi Walker a second and third time, and the second and third shots provided no tactical advantage in the attempted arrest of the Aboriginal man, a former Northern Territory police defensive tactics trainer told Rolfe’s murder trial before the NT supreme court.
The court has previously heard Rolfe shot Walker three times during an attempted arrest on 9 November 2019 in the remote community of Yuendumu, about 300km from Alice Springs.
