Howard Co. police officers who shot man with autism won’t be charged, Md. AG says
Howard County police officers who fatally shot 25-year-old Alexander LaMorie, a man with autism, will not face charges, according to Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown. The AG's office found insufficient evidence to support criminal charges, including violations of Maryland's use of force statute, voluntary manslaughter, or second-degree murder, after reviewing body camera footage showing LaMorie carrying a knife and approaching officers.
