While killer cops are unfortunately nothing new in modern society, these police officers were not involved in malice, criminal activity, or corruption.
Family and friends gathered Sunday afternoon to remember the life of Dane Scott Jr.
Sunday marked nine years since he was shot and killed by a Del City police officer following a pursuit in southeast Oklahoma City. He loved his family a lot, Scott’s mother Deloise Dockins said. We always would have gatherings and he will be the center of attention.
In March 2012, Scott was a senior at Del City High School. Police were attempting to pull Scott over after they said he was seen driving in the middle of the road.
A high-speed chase led to Scott eventually crashing his vehicle. After a scuffle with an officer, he was shot in the back and transported to a hospital where he later died.
