(Hunt County Sheriff's Office via AP)DALLAS – A white police officer charged with murder in the fatal shooting of a Black man in a small East Texas city was fired Thursday.
A statement from Wolfe City said Officer Shaun Lucas, 22, was fired for “his egregious violation” of city and police department policy.
He said witnesses have said Price was “too far away to even be considered as reaching for the” stun gun.
When Lucas produced a stun gun, Price began to walk away.
