Authorities have identified a man who was shot and killed by police in Manchester, New Hampshire, on Friday morning.
An autopsy conducted Saturday determined that the cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and abdomen
The New Hampshire Attorney General's Office said in a release later in the day that they were responding to a report of a police shooting that occurred Friday morning in Manchester. They said an adult male subject was shot and has been taken to an area hospital with what police described as life-threatening injuries.
Instead, the man reached into his pocket for the gun. A struggle ensued, during which the man fired what was later determined to be a pistol, and the officer returned fire. The man was struck and taken to an area hospital, where was later pronounced dead. The officer involved in the incident was wearing a body-worn camera, which recorded the event. That footage is being preserved and will be reviewed. The officer was not hurt.
