Law enforcement says a 27-year-old man who was shot to death by a Tucson police officer last month was acting erratically and was armed with a gun.
Edward Celaya A Tucson Police officer killed a man experiencing"auditory hallucinations" on Tucson's east side last week after the man pointed a gun first at himself, then at officers, officials said.
When Tucson police arrived, they made contact with the 911 caller and learned Putnam was acting erratically and could be a danger to himself or others. According to the police account, as officers approached, they ordered Putnam multiple times to show his hands. Putnam reportedly pointed a gun at himself, then at officers, before Officer Steven Clark shot him.
