Police say shooting victim pointed shotgun at officers.
A man who was fatally wounded by a police gunshot Monday night had run into a bedroom, come out with a loaded 20-gauge shotgun and pointed it at two police officers moments before he was shot, a Topeka police spokesman said Tuesday. Listrom, a 10 year veteran of the police department, has been an investigator in the police narcotics unit for seven years. Hiszczynsky said that the laboratory at the Kansas Bureau of Investigation would conduct tests to determine whether any drugs were present in Butlers system at the time of the shooting. Its unknown when the test results will be available, he said. Officers were seeking LSD, a hallucinogenic drug, at the home when they knocked on the front door.
