BREAKING Police chief says man fatally shot by Farmington police had gun, refused to cooperate with officers
FARMINGTON, Utah — The man fatally shot by Farmington police on Wednesday had a handgun in his car at the time of the shooting, the department's chief said in the first new details released since the incident.
According to the department, when stopped for having an illegitimate license plate, Allan pulled into the parking lot and rolled down his window for the officer only a few inches. Allan allegedly also refused to provide identification or cooperate with the officer. The Standard-Examiner reported Friday that Johnsen said Allan's car had a placard declaring constitutional sovereignty in place of a license.
The department says Allan refused to get out of his car when ordered to do so. When an officer went to open the door as another attempted to remove Allan from inside the car, an officer yelled"gun, gun, gun!" before a brief struggle ended with shots being fired.
