1 killed 1 injured by police November 4, 2015 Jeremy Mardis Killed By Police Chasing His Father 6 year old autistic boy passenger Jeremy Mardis was killed when police fired on Louisiana man Chris Few as he was cornered after fleeing police officer marshals who initially claimed he was backing into them. Jeremy is white.

Fiancee Megan Dixon had bickered with Few at a local pool hall. After picking up his son, he pulled alongside Dixon at a stoplight and asked her to come with him, but she refused. As the cars pulled away from the light, two marked marshals’ cars turned on their lights flashing. He apparently decided to flee in fear  “because he and one of the marshals on the scene had a prior personal conflict.” Gawker and Guardian report that police no longer claim Few was backing up, and bullet damage appears to show shots   car was perpendicular to the officers, and their shots “hit the driver’s side broadside.

Nov 3 shooting Report: Louisiana Police Dramatically Walk Back Explanation for Shooting Death ...  (white suspect/victim) Gawker New details and an explicit disavowal of the initial explanation suddenly make the fatal shooting of six-year-old Jeremy Mardis look like the result of disastrous recklessness by local police, if not something worse.  Two days after six-year-old Jeremy Mardis was fatally shot, and just a day after the shooting was attributed to marshals, and the boy’s father accused of backing his car into pursuers, Louisiana police have disavowed that entire storyreports The Guardian. On Thursday, Colonel Michael Edmonson, head of the Louisiana state police, denied earlier reports that Few had been reversing his car toward the officers, who then had to defend themselves. “No. I didn’t say that,” he told the Guardian. “That didn’t come from me.” does not seem to support the story that Few was backing his vehicle towards or into officers. The positioning of the three police cruisers on the scene and the spray of glass from the passenger window indicate Few’s car was perpendicular to the officers, and their shots “hit the driver’s side broadside.” fiancee, Megan Dixon, said she and Few had bickered at a local pool hall. Sometime later, after Few had picked up his son, he pulled alongside Dixon at a stoplight and asked her to come with him. “I wouldn’t do it,” she said. “I’m stubborn.” Moments later, she said, as the cars pulled away from the light, she saw two marshals’ cars—marked in black and white—approaching from behind with their lights flashing. he was reportedly afraid of the marshals “because he and one of the marshals on the scene had a prior personal conflict.”
