Police-Involved Shooting Leaves Suspect Dead

It is always frightening when police officers have to resort to firing their guns when in danger. Recently, Todd Ely White, from Spokane, Washington, shot at police officers when they arrived after a 911 call from his brother-in-law was dispatched.

The police officers were left with no choice but the shoot at White. One officer fired and hit White, where he fell to the ground, was restrained, and treated by paramedics. He later died at the hospital. Fortunately, no police officers or others were injured.

Police-involved shootings are, often times, a controversial topic. But in this situation, the police officers, directly in harm’s way, had no choice but to protect themselves and those around them. They did a heroic thing in preventing others from being hurt from a violent man.
