Police say an officer killed Nyah Mway, a Karen refugee from Myanmar, after a chase and 'ground struggle' Friday night in Utica, N.Y.
An officer in upstate New York fatally shot a 13-year-old who was running with a “realistic appearing' pellet gun, authorities said Saturday. Utica police Chief Mark Williams said the shooting happened Friday night after officers in the city about 240 miles northwest of Manhattan stopped two youths a little after 10 p.m. Police did not say why they were stopped. Williams said one of the youths ran and pointed what appeared to be a handgun at the officers.
Officers at the scene recovered what he described as a replica of a Glock 17 Gen 5 handgun with a detachable magazine, he added. “It is in all aspects a realistic appearing firearm with GLOCK markings, signatures, detachable magazine, and serial numbers,” spokesman Curley said via email when asked to elaborate about the weapon. “However ultimately it fires only pellets or BB's.
