A Wilmington police officer who opened fire on a man who had been asleep in his running SUV last year has been cleared of criminal wrongdoing.
Officer Luis Vazquez fired three rounds at Jabri Hunter, hitting him twice, after hearing a loud bang, caused by a colleague attempting to break the driver s side window.
The Department of Justice investigation determined that the bang contributed to Vazquez s state of mind that his – and his fellow officers – safety was at risk.
The results of three other police use-of-force inquiries were also released by the Justice Department on Friday. In all four cases, the officers were cleared of criminal wrongdoing. A police officer in Delaware has never been found criminally liable for a shooting.
