In video obtained by DailyMail.com former Albuquerque city council
candidate Steven Baca is seen allegedly firing shots at a demonstrator
on Monday night.
Police officers in Albuquerque arrested Baca, 31,
shortly after the wild brawl and charged him with shooting Scott
Williams. Williams was protesting for the removal of the 'La Jornada'
sculpture that depicts a 16th-century Spanish colonial governor
notorious for massacring natives.
In the video footage Baca is seen
allegedly drawing a handgun after he was chased down by a group of
protesters and pushed to the ground.
Baca was wrestled to the ground by
two protesters before Williams ran in and picked up a skateboard,
hitting Baca hard over the head with it. Williams, it's believed, is
heard screaming: 'I'm gonna fucking kill you'.
Baca pulled his gun and
shot at Williams four times, hitting him in the torso, the footage
allegedly shows.
Williams was rushed to the University of New Mexico
Hospital where he is said to be in critical condition.

Sounds like it may be justified.
A skate board can easily be considered to be a deadly weapon. It has an "advantage" to the wielder in that, unlike carrying around a tire iron, it has a perfectly reasonable and innocent reason for being in your hands, right up until the time you slam somebody upside the head with it.
