On October 23, 2014, 38-year-old Michael Ricardo Minor was shot and killed during a confrontation with Prince George’s County Sheriff’s deputies in Suitland, Maryland. Deputies had been called to a residence after a woman reported a domestic assault and said she believed Minor had a handgun when he left. While officers were still on scene Minor returned and was told to keep his hands up; officers say he made furtive movements and challenged them to shoot. Deputy First Class Kendal Wade discharged his firearm, striking Minor. Minor was taken to a hospital and later died. Investigators reported no weapon was found on Minor or at the scene.

Deputy Wade and another deputy, Tiffany Pullam, were placed on administrative leave and the Prince George’s County Police Department led the investigation. A grand jury declined to indict Wade on criminal charges. Minor’s family later filed a $10 million wrongful death lawsuit against the county; the civil case outcome is not publicly documented. Does anyone have additional information about the shooting or the civil case filing?
