No charges will be filed against the South Bend Police officer who shot and killed a man in the line of duty Monday.
Prosecutors say Patrolman Jason King did what was absolutely necessary to defend his own life and the homicide has been ruled justifiable. Officer King responded to a domestic dispute call on Monday.
When he arrived he spotted 25-year-old Joseph Hanrath in the neighborhood. Hanrath matched the description of the offender in that call. Patrolman King chased him until Hanrath turned on the policeman and attacked him. Police say Hanrath used a military or martial arts move to choke Officer King.
