According to JSO, the incident stemmed from a murder investigation in Broward County about a week ago. Broward County officials reached out to JSO for assistance in the investigation.
JSO also released a photo of the firearm it said was in his possession at the time of the shooting in Orange Park.
JSO said a search warrant was obtained, and they found a gun in a home and in a vehicle. That information was relayed back to Broward County authorities so they could continue their investigation. JSO said officers blocked the dark-colored sedan and instructed him to get out of the car. According to JSO, the man told officers that he “was not getting out of the car” and instructed officers to shoot him.
“They don’t have to wait to be fired at before they engage a suspect,” Sheriff T.K. Waters said at the news briefing. “If he raises a handgun, he points at them, they are at that point able to use deadly force.”No officers were injured.
