Lance Lowe

Deadly force

A witness claimed to have seen a woman screaming and bleeding with a ripped shirt who walked away from the home before police arrived. Officer Jimmy Inn knocked on the security door and stood off to the side when a voice from inside the residence said, "Hey police," and 30-year-old Lance Lowe opened fire on Inn, hitting him multiple times. Officer Pancho Freer arrived as gunshots rang out and saw Lowe standing over Inn with a gun in his hand. Lowe then began shooting at Freer, hitting his patrol car. After Freer began shooting back at Lowe, Lowe walked back inside his home and later returned with his 8-year-old son in the front yard. Lowe allegedly began to strangle his son in front of police and when he didn't listen to Freer's orders to stop, a community member tackled him, freeing the child. Freer then shot and killed Lowe.
