Officers shot and killed a man who was throwing Molotov cocktails and setting cars ablaze near a police station in Raleigh, North Carolina, authorities said.
The confrontation began after an officer observed a man lighting vehicles on fire in a parking lot near a district station at around 1:20 p.m., Police Chief Estella Patterson said at a news conference.
“Multiple officers then discharged their weapons, and the individual was struck multiple times,” Patterson said. The police chief said an investigation is ongoing and more details of the shooting would be released in a report in coming days.
