Officers Cleared in Mall Shooting | Anchorage News

Description

Three Fairbanks officers and an Alaska State Trooper are cleared of wrongdoing in the June 28 shooting death of Brandon Michael Roberts, after body cam footage showed him pointing a gun at them during a mall pursuit — legally justifying their response. No charges will be filed, as prosecutors found Roberts had an outstanding warrant and a history of carrying a firearm, escalating the situation when he pulled out his weapon despite warnings. The Fairbanks Police Department is now conducting its own internal review, while releasing the graphic footage to provide transparency — a sobering reminder of the daily risks faced by law enforcement.
