Officials said the officer responded to an unrelated disturbance at the fast-food restaurant when he saw the teen inside a car, which had evaded the officer a day earlier.
A Texas police officer who shot and wounded a teenager who had been sitting in his car eating a hamburger has been fired, police said.
A Texas prosecutor said in a statement Friday that he has not seen enough evidence to file charges against the teenager. “The officer abruptly opened the driver’s door and ordered the driver out of the car” before the arrival of backup officers that Brennand had requested, Campos said.
