SAN FRANCISCO (CN) A jury must decide if a former San Francisco police officer being prosecuted for manslaughter used excessive force when he shot and killed an unarmed man fleeing from a stolen van, a federal judge ruled Monday.
It was rookie officer Chris Samayoa’s fourth day on the job on Dec. 1, 2017, when he shot and killed 42-year-old Keita “Iggy” O’Neil from the passenger seat of a squad car. O’Neil had jumped out of a stolen California State Lottery minivan and tried to run away in Samayoa’s direction when other patrol cars blocked his path.
