Randy Sharpe Jr. was shot and killed by officers Tuesday night after they say he pointed a gun at police.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — We're leading more details about the man who was shot and killed by members of the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Tuesday night. The 12th officer involved shooting of the year by JSO resulted in the death of Randy Sharpe Jr. The mother of two of Sharpe's children wants to know why her kids will have to grow up without a father.
"As they're making contact he turns and points the firearm right at officers so they both engage him, they both fire their weapons and he went down immediately, at that point they immediately start rendering aid," said JSO Chief of Investigations Alan Parker during a media briefing Tuesday night. "It's unfair, they took him away from so many people but first and foremost they took him away from his kids," said Stevens."They don't get to experience having a dad growing up, him taking them to prom or helping them on tests."
"It's just sad because the story isn't even clear, the story doesn't make sense and there's so many details left out. Why would he just turn around and aim a gun? Randy knows better, he wouldn't do that," said Stevens.
