officer involved shooting

The BCA says it's preliminary investigation found that the man was fatally shot after he grabbed and officers gun and managed to pull the trigger during a struggle.

The police chief says an officer's gun discharged when the man grabbed a hold of the firearm in its holster.

The man that shot by the deputies was later identified as a suspect in the murder of a Duluth man.

A statement says the suspect fired a "flare-like projectile" at law enforcement officers.

The Walker Police Department says the man was charging at an officer with a knife.

The deadly shooting incident occurred after authorities responded to arson fires at the man's home and neighboring homes.

Officials say he was shot and killed by deputies after setting fires and shooting at a law officer and firefighter.

Two women were shot and wounded during the incident.

The BCA says the man shot and killed by law officers had texted a woman and indicated that he had just killed his mother.

It's the second officer-involved shooting investigated by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension this week.
