A 19-year-old man with a criminal history in Maryland and Washington was fatally shot Thursday morning by a Prince George’s County police officer after authorities said he pointed a gun at another officer as they investigated a suspicious car.<\/p>\n
The incident unfolded about 8 a.m. on a residential street in Capitol Heights, Md., outside Washington. Police recovered two guns from the scene, including a 9mm Carbine rifle, and said the vehicle matched descriptions of one used in recent robberies and shootings in the vicinity.<\/p>\n
The dead man was identified as Terrance Toshay Thomas Jr., who lived four blocks from where he was killed. A passenger who was in the vehicle and tried to run away was arrested, police said.<\/p>\n
Officers performed CPR on Thomas, who died at an area hospital.<\/p>\n
A D.C. Superior Court jury convicted Thomas two weeks ago of two counts of misdemeanor assault and one count of destruction of property after police said he rammed a police car following a police pursuit that began in Prince George’s County and ended in Washington in July. Police said the 2003 Buick Regal Thomas was driving had been taken in a carjacking in Maryland.<\/p>\n
A judge sentenced Thomas to 180 days in jail but suspended the sentence and imposed a year probation. The county officers had suffered minor injuries. Meanwhile, Thomas had been awaiting a February trial in Prince George’s County after he was arrested in October and charged with numerous felony firearms offenses. He was out on bail when he was killed.<\/p>\n
