The 15-year-old San Diego boy shot and killed by police left a suicide note prompting the theory he was committing “suicide by cop.” The boy was killed by officers after pointing a BB gun at them in a high school parking lot in the evening hours.
Police say the unidentified boy called 911 operators shortly before 3:30 a.m. to ask officers to check on the welfare of an unarmed boy in front of the school. Investigators later determined he was referring to himself.
Assistant Police Chief Brian Ahearn told The Associated Press on Monday that police found the note on the Torrey Pines High School student and believe he called police and pointed the BB gun at them so he would be shot. h/t wave3
