Officers on patrol were trying to pull over a car they thought had been involved in a shooting when someone jumped out of the car and ran, according to police. A brief chase led to an "armed encounter" between the person and the officer, and it ended with the officer shooting and killing the teen as he tried to climb a fence to safety.
