Summary: |
Officer McGee was shot and killed while attempting to arrest a man for burglary of cash, a pellet gun, and a .22 caliber handgun.

The suspect initially cooperated and surrendered the pellet gun. As Officer McGee handcuffed him the suspect suddenly pulled a handgun from his waistband and shot him several times. He then stole Officer McGee's service weapon and fled, only to be apprehended later.
