Former police officer was facing a manslaughter charge in death of man using a mobility scooter.
Jamie Donnelly A second grand jury has declined to indict a former Tucson police officer on a manslaughter charge after he shot and killed a man in a mobility scooter last year.
In August, Pima County Attorney Laura Conover announced Remington’s indictment at a press conference. When asked about the second grand jury’s decision, the Pima County Attorney’s Office provided a statement from Conover: “Victim notification is our focus and top priority at this time, as the matter continues under our review.”
Richards continued to head through the Walmart and Lowe’s parking lots as Remington and another officer followed him, yelling at him to stop as he approached the Lowe’s garden section entrance. Remington then fired his gun, striking Richards nine times and killing him. Jamie Donnelly covers breaking news for the Arizona Daily Star. Contact her via e-mail at [email protected]
