A man was shot during a traffic stop Friday night. The Independent Investigations Office is now investigating the incident.
Authorities stopped the vehicle near the 4100 block of Highway 17, in relation to an investigation regarding the man’s breach of a conditional sentence order, according to a report released by the IIO Saturday afternoon.
“The IIO has begun an investigation to confirm the details of what occurred during the traffic stop and to determine what role, if any, police actions or inactions played in the man’s injuries,” reads the report released Saturday. At first, she thought it was just congestion. “I noticed there’s a couple of flashing lights up ahead, and I figured oh, maybe it’s like a sobriety check, or police stop, you know, because sometimes they stop all the traffic because they’re expecting somebody who matches a certain descriptor or something,” she said.
“I can just hear him yelling like, evacuate your vehicle, evacuate your vehicle, get out the car, run. And so quickly, we get out and he’s going around, he’s yelling at other people, evacuate, evacuate, run all this kind of stuff. So we get out and we are just like quickly running, running until we get to the exit.”Sign up for the CHEK Now daily email newsletter to get breaking news and the day's top stories sent to your email.
