AKRON -- It looks and fires like something out of Star Wars, but the latest weapon that Akron Police have in their arsenal certainly appears to be from a galaxy far, far away.
It's called "Corner Shot", and it allows officers to load their sidearm into an expandable arm that extends around a corner. Using a video monitor to see that target, the officer can fire a round at a 90-degree angle while staying protected behind cover.

Sort of cowardly. If crooks get these too, shoot-outs are going to become real pointless.

Not if, but when.... And when will they get autonomous robots?
