IONIA, MI -- A former Lowell police officer who authorities say “needlessly fired” eight rounds at a fleeing vehicle, striking a man and teen in the car, is expected in court Wednesday, April 14.
The police officer, according to testimony, fired 11 shots total during the incident, and it is the final eight shots that led to criminal charges being filed.

A Lowell, Michigan, police officer was arraigned Tuesday on assault, misconduct and weapons charges after he fired at a fleeing vehicle last year, wounding a passenger in the head, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said.
In a statement announcing the charges against Officer Jason Diaz in Lowell, Nessel adressed another police involved shooting, saying there was insufficient evidence to charge Shelby Township Police Officer Jason Zuk in the 2018 fatal shooting of a man with mental health issues in a separate case.
