A police officer was justified in using deadly force last year when he shot at a man during a standoff in Manheim Township that ended when the man killed himself, according to the Lancaster County District Attorneyâs Office.
The officer shot at Craig Kevin Bush â resulting in a superficial wound â when Bush held up a semiautomatic pistol, according to the district attorneyâs office. Bush then fatally shot himself, the office said.
Manheim Township police were dispatched to a residence on Knollwood Drive at 8:08 p.m. Dec. 8, 2020, after a man called 911 in behalf of his sister, who told him her boyfriend was âgoing crazy,â the district attorneyâs office said in a press release.
