Mr McCoy's cousin... said [McCoy] had finished up a session in a recording studio before he drove to the Taco Bell.
McCoy’s family said the rapper, whose stage name was Willie Bo, had been in the recording studio in the days leading up to his fatal encounter with police and had likely been so exhausted that he’d fallen asleep while waiting to order food.
'He's got a gun in his lap. The magazine's half out, so he's only got one shot if he shoots. Door looks unlocked,' said an officer. 'I'm thinking we snatch him out.'
Neither McCoy's face nor the weapon are clearly visible, but one officer says he notices the gun with a magazine half out, so at the most it would have one bullet that could have been fired.
