Joshua James Walker

Deadly force

Police said two officers were responding to reports of a stabbing when their squad car was rammed by another other. They said that car was being driven by the suspect in the stabbing, who was also a suspect in a burglary and carjacking in the area. After a traffic pursuit, officers cornered Walker, who was holding 'a dark object' and refused their orders to surrender. He was shot and killed by the officers. Walker's victim, the girlfriend of his brother, later died.
