BY RACHEL MAHONEY The (Lynchburg) News & Advance LYNCHBURG — A Lynchburg Police Department officer who shot at a man while trying to take him into custody during a mental health episode, killing a dog the man was holding, was justified in his actions, a prosecutor has determined. Multiple officers responded to the Cherrywood Suites extended-stay apartments off Holcomb Path Road the night of Feb. 25 for at least two calls about a man who was having a mental health episode, according to statements from police and an investigation report released Tuesday. One of the callers had just ended a relationship with the man, the report states, and officers determined that the man was under the influence of multiple drugs, had bladed weapons in the apartment, had a history of violence and had recently become paranoid after he stopped taking psychiatric medications.
