Indictment of NYPD Officer in Bronx Shooting Tossed
Unarmed suspect killed following pursuit
An indictment has been thrown out in the case against an NYPD police officer charged last year in the fatal shooting of an unarmed suspect in a Bronx home.
A judge found on Wednesday that prosecutors gave flawed instructions to a grand jury that indicted Officer Richard Haste.
The case isn't over because prosecutors were expected to present the case again to the grand jury.
