According to reports, a police detective was seated in his truck when a man pointed his gun at him. The detective then fired his handgun, killing the assailant.
His family, however, disputes the sequence of events and has engaged a civil rights attorney to charge the cop who shot him with murder.
According to authorities, 26-year-old Cameron Lamb aimed a weapon at a detective before being shot and killed while seated in a truck in his garden.
The family of the murdered Missouri man, however, has engaged a well-known lawyer to pursue justice since they believe he did nothing that called for the use of such force.
Officers were summoned to the scene of an incident involving two automobiles at 35th and College, according to the Kansas City Police Department (KCPD).
Suspects allegedly led officers on foot to a house on 41st Street while a police aircraft scanned the area. Lamb was sitting in a truck in his garden when police arrived, and that is where they met him.
