How they died
Deadly force
An officer shot Paris C. Nicholson near Argo Community High School. According to police, officers had responded to a disturbance at about 6:10 p.m. and found several young people apparently involved in a fight among rival street gangs. The first officer on the scene reportedly heard a gunshot and saw Nicholson with a weapon. Nicholson fled and the officer chased him on foot for about a block. Then, police claimed, the officer feared for his life and fired two shots. Police would not say why the officer was in fear for his life. Nicholson was pronounced dead at a hospital.
