The state inspector general's office says two officers fired about 10 gunshots at Donald Passmore as he lay in his bed with a .22-caliber revolver early Monday.
Donald Passmore was lying in bed with a .22-caliber revolver and had country music playing when he was killed by two police officers who had initially been summoned to the 62-year-old's Connecticut home after a report he'd shot himself. The killing Monday angered and saddened Passmore’s family and raised questions about whether officers could have done things differently. It came as many police departments nationwide have changed the way they respond to certain calls, including those involving mentally ill people — in response to outcries over police killings.
