Wisconsin - Police were calling for restraint Saturday in Madison, Wis., after the fatal shooting of an African-American teenager that sparked demonstrations.
Police Chief Mike Koval said Saturday it is "absolutely appropriate" for protesters to express their feelings after a police officer shot the teen Friday night, but he called for restraint, adding that an outside agency will investigate the incident.
Koval said the incident occurred after an officer — called to investigate a man jumping into traffic — followed the teenager to a nearby apartment and forced his way in after apparently hearing a disturbance, the Wisconsin State Journal reported.
Koval told reporters that the teenager "then assaulted my officer and in the context of mutual combat, the officer did draw his revolver and subsequently shot the subject." He said more than one shot was fired. More
