A fatal police shooting in Greeley is being referred to a Weld County grand jury.
Colorado deputy shot and killed unarmed man at point-blank range after struggle outside middle school, video shows
“Under Colorado law, grand jury proceedings are secret and not open to the public,” the DA’s office said in a news release. The shooting happened after officers responded to the 100 block of East 20th Street, in the Meadow Village Mobile Home Park, to arrest a man who was wanted on several warrants, police said at the time.
The 33-year-old suspect had barricaded himself inside a home, leading additional officers to respond to the scene. After about three hours of negotiations, and the use of “less lethal munitions,” the suspect, armed with a knife, attempted to exit the residence toward several officers. “One Greeley Police officer fired multiple rounds at the suspect, striking him,” a Nov. 8 police news release said. Officers rendered aid, including CPR, but the man died at the scene. There were no other injuries.
