Jason A. Wilson

Deadly force

Police officers stopped the car Wilson was riding in after witnessing a suspected drug transaction, on the technicality of a traffic violation. When police ordered the four individuals in the car to exit, Wilson refused several times. Reportedly Wilson reached for a revolver and shot at officers, who responded firing 22 shots, 8 of which struck Wilson. A toxicology analysis indicated that Wilson had cocaine, hydrocodone, methadone, oxycodone and a small amount of alcohol in his system at his time of death.
