    “…a suspect who was wanted on narcotics related offensives.”

    That was the last traffic stop for him.

    I’m surprised by the lack of details here. I live in this area and heard the gunshots. They woke my boyfriend out of his sleep. There was a vehicular chase and then they caught up to and killed the man. & The guy was a skinhead from what I’ve heard by someone who works at the hospital.
