Force used by officers was deemed justified. An incident involving a suspected car thief ended with the individual being shot. The suspect, Elliot Samuels Vaughn, had apparently pointed a gun at the officers before being hit in the thigh. He received treatment for non-life-threatening injuries.

Further details about the incident are available, including the events that led up to the shooting and the charges filed against Vaughn.
