CT Philanthropist Killed at His Home by Police
Looks like a major screw-up
"Anna and John were in the kitchen," Mr. Weller said. "Off the back door of the kitchen, there's a step-down to a portico. That's where the cops came. John was standing inside the kitchen. Anna said all she heard was: 'Freeze! Freeze! Pop! Pop!' Then she heard a thud '" him falling '" and then him moaning."
Shortly afterward, Mr. Weller said, "the police officer was very upset and kept saying, 'What did I do?' The other officers were trying to console him."
The State Police are investigating. Officer Romero has been placed on desk duty in the meantime.
