Who pushed my dad?"Someone in the crowd said Gardner had "a gun on him," prompting a group to surround and tackle the bar owner, who reacted by firing two warning shots, Kleine said, per KETV.Scurlock can then be seen jumping on Gardner, who Kleine said repeatedly asked, "Get off me, get off me, please get off me," before firing the gun he was carrying, striking the young man."You can't use deadly force to protect property," said Kleine, who reviewed footage of the incident with other law enforcement officials. "Deadly force can only be used if someone is in fear of their own life or serious bodily injury and they don't feel like they can retreat safely. Even if they are mistaken, if their beliefs have a reasonable basis, it's justifiable for them to use deadly force ... that's what the law is."Gardner believed that Scurlock was trying to reach for his weapon, Kleine said, who admitted to being afraid that someone would be hurt by way of the burgeoning protests, KETV reported."I prayed nothing bad would happen," he said at the press conference. "Always a fear, I was hoping and praying to God no one pull a gun out and do something, and it happened. It saddens me to no end to see our community go through this kind of thing."Despite deeming Scurlock's killing a "senseless death," Kleine disagreed with people in the community who responded with "emotions" and "anger," calling it "a cold-blooded murder," KETV reported."We know that emotions are running very high," Kleine said. "This decision may not be popular and may cause more people to be upset. I would hope that they understand that we're doing our job to the best of our ability and looking at the evidence and the law. And that's all we can do."Attorney Justin Wayne, who represents the Scurlock family, <a href="https://www.wowt.com/video?vid=570931662">told Omaha's WOWT</a> that the case should go to a grand jury. "In this community, we prosecute black and brown individuals a lot more for the things we just watched," Wayne said. "What I want is justice, not a quick answer," Scurlock's father, James Scurlock II, told the outlet. <ul class="read-more-links"><li>Read more:</li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/protesters-ride-horses-black-lives-matter-protest-lil-nas-x-2020-6" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Some Black Lives Matter protesters have been riding horses to protests.
