A Texas police officer was involved in a shooting at a gas station on Saturday that killed Jonathan Price and led to his arrest, the report said.
Wolf City Police Department Officer Shawn David Lucas was responding to a call for a domestic unrest that day in response to a possible fight in progress, read a statement obtained by local media by the Texas Rangers.

The statement said Price, 311, who is black, was allegedly involved in the “disturbance” and when Lucas tried to detain him, he “resisted in a non-hazardous manner and started walking from there.” The statement alleged that Lucas had set up his taser and fired his gun. Price, who was unarmed, died at a nearby hospital.
“Preliminary investigations indicate that Officer Lucas’s actions were not objectively justified,” the statement said.
In a Fox4News report, the relatives of the spirit called him a model citizen and said he was trying to break the argument between a man and a woman.
Jr. Price, his father, told the station, “I love my son, and I tried to get him to do the right thing.”
Spirit relatives told CBS 11 News that there is a video that shows the shooting was a criminal act.
Lucas posted 1 million of his bonds, the report said.
