Officers reported that when they chased Mercado in his car, and when he stopped, he left the car and came toward officers, shooting at them with a handgun. Four officers fired back and killed Mercado. He was suspected of killing his sister's boyfriend--and an order of protection is shedding some light on what led to that domestic fight.
