U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Jefferson City
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Loken, Circuit Judge, and
Gerrard, District Judge]
Civil case - civil rights. District court did not err in granting police
officer's motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity on
claim he used excessive force in shooting plaintiff's deceased as the
officer had probable cause to believe that the deceased posed an
immediate threat of serious physical harm to him and his partner, and his
action was objectively reasonable.
