Name withheld by police

How they died

Deadly force

An off-duty officer was in the parking lot of the Sports Emporium Cafe when he noticed a group of four or five men and heard an argument, police said. When one of the men pulled a gun and shot one of the other men in the shoulder, the officer pulled his own gun. He identified himself as being a police officer, told the shooter to drop the weapon, and the kid turned and fired at him. The officer shot and killed him.
