This is the 18 year old young man who was shot
dead yesterday Dec. 23rd by a police officer at a
gas station not far from where Michael Brown was
killed in Ferguson, Missouri. But the police say this
is a totally different case because Antonio Martin
had a gun and pointed it at 34yr old unnamed
officer, who pulled out his own gun and shot three
times, killing Antonio.
Antonio pictured above pointing a gun at the police
officer as the officer responded to a call of a
theft in the area. The police officer fired three
shots, one hitting the teen. Antonio, who didn't
fire his weapon, was pronounced dead at the scene
by responding EMS officers.
During a press conference later, the police said
Antonio was known to them and had previous
charges including three assaults, armed robbery,
armed criminal action and multiple uses of
weapons since he was 17.
