The grand jury reached its decision on Monday after
investigating the Oct. 10 shooting death of Annette Prince, 77,
in northwest Oklahoma City, according to a statement from the
prosecutor's office.
Police at the time said the officers were investigating a
reported auto-pedestrian accident when they encountered Prince
outside her crashed vehicle.
Police said Prince fired a gun several times and refused to drop
the weapon, then pointed it at the officers who all opened fire,
killing the woman.
The seven, Lt. William Robison and officers Brandon Cobb,
Jonathan Espinosa Quinton Garner, Casey Brown, Daniel Young and
Jacob Welton, were placed on administrative leave after the
shooting.
A police spokesperson did not immediately return a phone call
Tuesday for comment on whether the officers were back on duty.
Police later learned that Prince was earlier riding in the
crashed vehicle that was driven by a woman she knew when she
shot the acquaintance twice.
The driver then jumped out of the vehicle with Prince moving to
the driver's seat and driving over the woman, who was seriously
injured, but survived, according to the prosecutor's news
release.
Prince then drove away before crashing the vehicle at the
location where she was encountered by the officers.
A motive for the shootings was not released and a spokesperson
for the district attorney did not immediately return a phone
call for comment.
