TL;DR Summary

All charges, including murder, have been reinstated against Philadelphia police officer Mark Dial, who fatally shot Eddie Irizarry during a traffic stop. The charges were initially dismissed by a municipal court judge but were refiled by the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office and reinstated by a state judge. Dial is now in custody without bail. Police initially claimed that Irizarry had lunged at the officers, but later admitted that was not the case. The defense argued that Irizarry had a knife that could have looked like a gun, while the prosecution argued that Dial approached the vehicle with his gun already drawn.
