A grand jury in Texas indicted a police officer Monday in a fatal shooting of a Black woman after a struggle outside the apartment complex where they both lived in May 2019.
Baytown Officer Juan Delacruz was charged with aggravated assault by a public servant more than a year after he shot Pamela Turner, 44, during an altercation over the officer’s stun gun. Delacruz will be given a chance to turn himself in and could face up to five years in prison if convicted, according to prosecutors.
