A man was killed by police in Crofton, MD, in a struggle that injured an officer Sunday during a response to a domestic dispute where the man assaulted his mother. The injured Anne Arundel County officer remains hospitalized with serious head and other injuries suffered while responding to a family violence call in which he fatally shot a man, WBALTV11 reports.
After police arrived, the mother told the 911 operator that she couldn’t get to the front door, according to the department’s spokesperson, Jacklyn Davis. The front door was locked and there was no answer at the door, so officers entered the house and went up to the third floor.
