A family friend of Kaoss Price, shot dead by police, says it's now clear they did not need to kill the unarmed young man.
The 22-year-old was shot on Saturday night on State Highway 3 while trying to hijack vehicles from members of the public, after first ramming a police car.
It was only late yesterday afternoon that the police revealed Price didn't have a gun.
A family friend says there was no justification for shooting him.
