Three days after a 21-year-old man was fatally shot by police officers outside of a McDonald’s restaurant, a Maryland police chief provided details on Monday about the “armed standoff,” but did not say what prompted officers to kill the suspect.
Friday’s incident outside the fast food restaurant ended with “a show of force” before a negotiator could reach the scene, Montgomery County Police Chief Marcus Jones told reporters.
Jones said the department’s hearts are with the family of the victim, Ryan Leroux of Gaithersburg, as well as the police officers who responded to the call.
