Prosecutor: Crystal police justified in shooting teen who pointed gun

November 2, 2017 By Bill Werner

Prosecutors say four police officers from Crystal were justified in shooting a teenager May 24th in a park. Khaleel Thompson, who survived his wounds, was hit multiple times after investigators say he pointed a b-b gun disguised as a real weapon at an officer. Police first used a non-lethal bean bag rifle to try to get him to drop the gun. Authorities say Thompson had a history of mental illness, had threatened suicide and told doctors he wanted “death by police.”
