BENNINGTON TWP., MI - A state police officer returned fire and killed an Owosso man Saturday in Shiawassee County, police said in a release.
The officer responded to a report of an individual acting “unusually” around 6:21 p.m., July 10 on Brewer Road near Morrice Road in Bennington Township, according to the Michigan State Police.
The Flint Post officer contacted the 37-year-old man, who became combative, police said. The officer used a stun gun on the man, which was ineffective, police said.
The Owosso man then pointed a gun and fired at the officer, police said, prompting the officer to try to remove the gun from the man. The man was able to point the gun at the officer again, who shot back and killed the man.
The officer did not suffer any injuries, police said. Michigan State Police’s First District Investigative Response Team, Forensic Science Laboratory, and Traffic Crash Reconstruction Unit investigated the incident.
Per MSP policy, the officer is on administrative leave pending the results of the investigation. Once completed, the investigation will be forwarded to the Shiawassee County Prosecutor’s Office for review.
