No charges have been filed against an Atlanta Police recruit who shot and killed a teenage boy who allegedly tried to rob him of a laptop computer, authorities said.
Forest Park Police continued their search Sunday for a second person who may have acted as a lookout in the alleged robbery attempt.
DeMario Jackson, 14, of Atlanta, was killed outside the Parkside Crossing apartments by the unidentified Atlanta Police recruit, who told police the teen tried to rob him about 12:15 a.m. Saturday.
Forest Park police Lt. Amy Wright said Jackson suffered more than one gunshot wound.:goodjob::goodjob:
According to the recruit, Jackson "was definitely not alone," Wright said.
The recruit told police that Jackson pulled a gun on him as he sat in his vehicle in the parking lot of the apartment complex. He was logged on because the complex offers free wireless Internet service, Wright said.
The recruit said he heard a tap on the driver's side window and looked up to see Jackson standing next to the car. Wright said the recruit believed Jackson wanted his laptop. The recruit could not roll down his window because it was broken, so he began to open the door, Wright said.
As the recruit stood up, she said, he grabbed a handgun that he had at his side and hid it with the laptop. Then the recruit fired at Jackson, killing him.
The recruit, who police said they would probably not identify until Monday, had been in the Marine Corps and lives at Parkside Crossing. She said he is attending the Atlanta police academy.
Wright said the department's investigation continues but that the shooting appears to be self-defense.
