Platkin said in a statement that Sharp’s life had been cut short by one of the very officers he relied on to help him. The incident took a turn when the second officer, Cpl. Robert Layton, yelled that Sharp, who was standing in the front yard, had “a handgun on him,” according to the AG Office’s statement. Oldrati fired several rounds, striking Sharp while he was still on the phone with the dispatcher, according to the statement. A replica .45-caliber firearm was recovered near Sharp, who died in the hospital.
