Father of Kaoss Price has 'forgiven' police for fatal shooting, blames ... (New Zealand Herald)

Kaoss, a father-of-three from Taranaki, rammed a stationary police car before attempting to steal cars from passersby. Police then fatally shot him. He was ...

He went on to tell the report writer, “I have forgiven them”. While on his hands and knees, Price kicked him once in the torso. Price followed him and called out for a fight but this did not eventuate. The court heard that moments before the assault, Price’s son allegedly punched a man on Cook St in New Plymouth. Kaoss’ car was immobilised due to the damage and he then tried to take a number of other motorists’ cars before he was shot. “It made me think about life and the path that I was on was not the right one,” Price said in the report. “He explained that it was only a month after the offending that his son was shot.” Since Kaoss’ death, Price’s consumption of alcohol, a principal issue, had decreased to the “point of being non-existent” and he had given up all “other” illegal drugs. In court, defence lawyer Paul Keegan said losing Kaoss has had a “terrible” effect on Price and he felt “somewhat responsible for the events leading up to his son’s death”. Price was present at the time and when the victim asked if he was “just going to allow that to happen”, Price ran over and struck the victim in the head a number of times. The victim did not retaliate and as he went to pick up his bag that was on the ground, he fell over. The father of Kaoss Price who was shot and killed by police during a carjacking says he has “forgiven” police for his son’s death and instead blames himself.
