I once read a story (unfortunately I can't find it again) where a man was going to jump from a building and to prevent him from doing so a police officer shot him, aiming for the leg. Well, he missed, and basically knocked him off the building. The officer was fired and the police department was sued for millions for wrongful use of excessive force or something.
Personally, the guy would have died either way, so I think it was pretty dumb for the officer to be reprimanded by attempting to keep him alive...
