Bus Stop Standoff Ends in Fatal Shooting | Annapolis News
Description
A tense 20-minute standoff at a Gaithersburg bus stop ended in tragedy when police fatally shot Elliott Powers, 46, after he allegedly reached for a gun. Bodycam and dashcam footage captures officers trying to de-escalate as Powers reportedly told them to shoot him — while they urged cooperation and called for backup. Dressed in all black, Powers was seated when the confrontation escalated, leading to multiple shots fired by officers from both Gaithersburg and Montgomery County PD. The Maryland Attorney General’s Independent Investigations Division is now reviewing the incident as standard procedure for any police-involved death.
