The **Raymond Davis Lahore shooting** was a 2011 incident in Lahore, Pakistan, in which CIA contractor Raymond Davis shot and killed two Pakistani nationals who approached his car with drawn guns. Per [John Kiriakou](https://www.kiripedia.org/wiki/john-kiriakou), rather than fleeing the scene, Davis stayed and called the consulate for help — consistent with CIA tradecraft for "getting off the X" rather than seeking cover and running.[1]

A consulate SUV sent to rescue Davis struck and killed an uninvolved Pakistani man riding a bicycle on its way to the scene. Pakistani police arrested Davis, and found on him a black mask, roughly 100 bullets, and a cell phone containing photographs of Pakistani military installations.[2]
