Daily News | Caln Township Police shoot man in Chester County
A member of the Caln Township Police Department shot an unarmed man during a suspected vehicle theft early Wednesday morning, according to the Chester County District Attorney’s office.
As the vehicle approached the intersection of Westerham and Shelburne roads, it rammed into a Caln officer’s patrol car at a high speed as the officer was attempting to place a spike strip in the road to puncture the vehicle’s tires. The officer was hit with debris, according to the district attorney’s office.
The man then allegedly told officers he would shoot them while raising his hands “clutched together,” pointing them at the officers.
