RIP to Colson and it really sucks that it came down to this. Makes you wonder what charges will be (if any) brought against the officer who shot him.
Cliffs:
-Three PG County Brothers conspired to ambush a police station.
-Two of the brothers were videotaping the attack w/ their phones.
-One of the brothers essentially had a death wish and recorded himself giving his last will and testament. He was the one doing the shooting.
-While the station under attack Colson was killed by friendly fire from a fellow police officer who mistook him as one of the assailants.
It's been all over the news for the past few days in the DMV...but this latest development is huge.
Jacai Colson, a Prince George’s County (Mary.) cop, was killed over the weekend by friendly fire during a shootout outside PGC police headquarters. Today in a press conference, police chief Hank Stawinski said that Colson was shot not accidentally, but instead “deliberately,” by a fellow officer who mistook him for one of the three suspects who participated in the offensive.
According to Stawinski, Colson, who was an undercover narcotics detective, was not in uniform and had gotten out of an unmarked vehicle at the station prior to being shot. It’s also worth noting that like the three suspects—Michael, Elijah, and Malik Ford—Colson was black. But Colson, pictured above, looked nothing like the suspects, who are pictured here.
