Investigators, however, reviewed surveillance video that showed he fired the shots “after the vehicle passed him and no longer presented an immediate threat that would have justified the use of deadly force” which resulted in the deaths of Dominique Williams and James Lionel Johnson.
Chief DeVaul said although police confirmed the men had been breaking into cars, Mr. Dixon acted outside his jurisdiction. He was not in uniform and “had no lawful or justifiable reason to shoot and kill Mr. Williams and Mr. Johnson.”
“Mr. Dixon was acting as a citizen when he approached these individuals, so we want our citizens to be our eyes and ears, but to call us to be good witnesses not intercede themselves,” Chief DeVaul said.
