Deadly force

Around 1:24 a.m. an officer traveling northbound on Gessner saw two vehicles speeding south on the road. The officer pulled up behind a green Ford pickup truck and followed it as the other traveled to Gessner and Bissonnet. Once the other got to the 9400 block of Bissonnet, the driver pulled over. A man and woman inside the truck told police they were driving fast because someone was shooting at another car. While the officer spoke with the people in the truck, a man reportedly walked from the south side of Bissonnet to the median and started talking to police. The man reached into his pants and pulled out a gun. He fired at least one time, and three officers shot and killed him.
