OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

Lawrence County deputies tried to traffic-stop Marty Hutto but he kept driving. Police claim that as they pursued, he “began throwing objects” ad the police car behind him and further claim that he got out of his vehicle and pointed a flare gun at police. Police shot and killed him. The killing was justified by the Grand Jury. It is not clear how police managed to get a shooting of a man who held an obvious nonlethal flare gun justified but all officers were cleared.
