D.C. police kill teenager
D.C. police officers shot and killed a teenager in Northeast Washington early Wednesday, police said.
At about 5:20 a.m., police were responding to a call of an unwanted guest on the 900 block of 21st Street NE when they were confronted by a man with a gun, a spokeswoman said. The two officers were “in imminent fear” for their lives and the lives of others and fired their service weapons, Officer Helen Andrews said. The teen, identified as 19-year-old James Broadus Miller, was taken to a hospital where he died.
