The man shot and killed by Leicester police Sunday had a confrontation in the fall with officers who were following the trail of a car that had been reported driving on three tires and a metal wheel rim.
Officers tracked Zachary M. Richardson to his home by following gouged streets and a 50-foot-long line of rocks that had been pulled into the street by an SUV, according to a police report.
When officers confronted Richardson outside the home on Trenton Street that he shared with his parents around 1:30 a.m. on Oct. 24, he called the officers â[expletive] pigs,â raised a single finger on each hand in their direction, and ordered them to get âoff my [expletive] property.â
