Christopher Capps

Deadly force

According to the Argus Leader: Multiple witnesses saw 22-year-old Capps push 15-year-old Blaze Davidson off a bike and assault him. An adult witness, Darrell Scribner, chased Capps into a nearby field. When Pennington County Deputy David Olson arrived he saw Scribner yelling at Capps and watched Capps turn around and start walking toward Scribner. Capps bent and picked something up. Olson yelled "Sheriff's Office!" to identify himself. Capps turned and started running toward Olson. Capps was holding was Olson thought was a knife. Olson tells Capps to stop and get to the ground, but he doesn't. Olson fired five rounds and hit Capps with all five. Investigators find a sharpened piece of driftwood next to Capps' body.
