Traffic is at a standstill on Spencer Highway in Pasadena, Texas following an officer-involved shooting.
Pasadena Police say they received a call around 10:15 a.m. about a man walking down the street by Hartz Chicken with a handgun and "pointing it in the air in different directions."Chief Josh Bruegger says two officers responded within two minutes of the call and found the suspect walking on the sidewalk with a gun in his hand near the intersection of Strawberry and Spencer.
Chief Bruegger says they gave him multiple instructions, but the suspect walked into the middle of the roadway. "Both officers discharged their weapons, struck the suspect," Bruegger said. "He was pronounced deceased here in the roadway."
