A Kansas police officer fatally shot a man carrying a replica BB gun

A Goddard police officer shot and killed a man after he refused numerous orders to abandon a weapon and began walking towards the officer with a weapon that was later determined to be a replica BB gun, they said the authorities.

Sedgwick County Sheriff Jeff Easter said 39-year-old Michael James Trask, of Lake Afton, died in the shooting near Goddard on Tuesday.

Easter said the officer tried to stop Trask for a traffic violation and a short chase ensued. After the vehicle finally stopped, the officer informed the dispatchers that the driver had thrown a weapon at him, Easter said.

The officer ordered the man a total of 15 times to drop his weapon, but Trask did not comply. Easter said Trask was walking towards the officer with the weapon when the officer fired eight times.

After the shooting, a woman who said she was Trask’s wife called dispatchers and said her husband was suicidal and was armed with a loaded .40 pistol, Easter said.

Easter said the gun was a replica BB gun.

The officer involved in the shooting has been placed in receivership pending an investigation.
