Deadly force

Officers responded to a radio call for a robbery during which a man had been shot. A male white subject had entered an auto repair shop, abruptly produced a revolver, and shot and injured the owner. He then fled. A uniformed sergeant and officer were alerted by a passerby that the subject had hailed a livery cab. Upon finding and stopping the cab, the sergeant and officer approached the other, at which point the subject opened the cab's rear door and menaced the officers with pistol in hand. The subject refused orders to relinquish his weapon, and a struggle over the gun ensued. When the subject wrested the .38 revolver away and pointed it at the officers, each officer shot and killed him.
