The word order of this title is just… yikes.
It's actually the correct way to write a headline, but it definitely feels weird.
The man was shot dead, as in, not shot and injured.
You learn to format titles a certain way in school, as to keep them short and to the point. Sometimes they can be read multiple ways, though, but it's not wrong.
Okay but no one says "shot dead black man". It would be "shot black man dead".
Or 'shot and killed' maybe?
Maybe even "fatally shot"?
Could also be "Shot Dead an Unarmed Black Man"
This is the most correct I think
Also good!
Lol, it sounds like he shot a man who was already dead.
I expect so little form cops that I read it that way and just accepted it.
