News10NBC Chief Investigative Reporter Berkeley Brean used radio calls to track the timeline between the 911 call and the deadly shots.
A Monroe County Sheriff’s investigator was sitting in the lobby of the hotel Monday afternoon. Their unmarked was outside the hotel.
A deputy’s unmarked car remained in front of the hotel. A clerk said Monday she wasn’t working when the shooting happened Sunday and could not pinpoint where it occurred.
A 911 operator sent deputies to the hotel just before 4 p.m. Sunday. 13 minutes later, one of the deputies made a radio call.
“Shots fired. (Inaudible) EMS. Have them step it up,” the deputy said.
The Sheriff’s Office said the deputies told the man to put his box cutter down. The man didn’t do it. Chief Deputy Michael Fowler didn’t say Sunday what led to the shooting.
“The deputies are shaken. It’s not something they set out to do,” Fowler said.
By law, the state Attorney General is the lead investigator. The office has had more than 200 cases where a person was killed by law enforcement or while in custody. It’s happened three times with the Sheriff’s Office. The AG’s office doesn’t exactly exonerate police and uses language like it’s “unable to disprove” that the officers were justified.
The Sheriff’s Office’s internal and criminal investigations will take weeks. The AGs office usually takes months to handle these cases.
The Sheriff’s Office spoke to the man’s family Sunday. The man’s name has not yet been released.
