No charges to be filed against any officers involved in fatal Austin-East shooting
The press conference comes amid calls for release of the body camera footage of the shooting after details of the investigation concluded officer Willson was not shot by Thompson Jr., as the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation initially reported.
Officials shared evidence concerning the officer-involved shooting. After reviewing the video evidence, DA Allen said she believes it was reasonable for Officer Clabough to feel his and the other officers lives were in danger.,snip>
The autopsy shows that the bullet entered Thompsons upper left body, traveled through both lungs and through the bottom of his heart. Because of the severity of the injury, no matter how soon aid was provided, Thompson would not have survived, said Allen.
This was a devastating, non-recovering, life-ending injury, the medical examiner said of Thompson Jr.s death.
No charges will be filed against any of the officers involved in the shooting of Anthony Thompson Jr, said Allen.

You will find a timeline of events and other details at the link. I am still extremely angry that KPD, who has a crisis negotiator available 24/7/365, chose not to call on them. That is lazy, incompetent policing, IMNSHO. They could most likely have talked the kid down and saved his life and the officer from being shot.
