Hard to tell in this case. Off-duty Atlanta police officer shot, killed while breaking into Douglas County home, deputies say | FOX 11 Los Angeles
Yes you read that headline correctly. An off-duty Atlanta police officer was breaking into someone's home, about a half mile from his own home.
"On an attempted burglary, understanding, at this time, that a person attempted to gain entry into the residence behind," the sheriff said. "When he gained entrance, the homeowner produced a firearm in self-defense and shot the individual. At this time, the individual is deceased."
At this time and all future times.
Investigators say the officer lives in the neighborhood, about a half-mile walk way, and may have been having a mental health episode or was under the influence of narcotics.
He was awarded "Officer of the Year" at the "Crime is Toast" breakfast on 24 September.
