Listen to this articleELKHORN, Wis. (AP) — The Walworth County district attorney has cleared four deputies involved in the fatal shooting of a man who stole a squad car.
District Attorney Daniel Necci issued a report Wednesday saying he determined the officers involved in the June 13 death of Jeremiah Krubert acted properly.
The district attorney concluded that the 39-year-old Elkhorn man was shot when he approached deputies with a shotgun taken from a squad car he had stolen. Krubert stole the car from a deputy who was trying to apprehend him after he beat his mother’s boyfriend with a pipe. Krubert refused commands to drop the shotgun. Deputies then opened fire, and Krubert died at the scene.
The autopsy determined that Krubert had used cocaine. His mother told authorities he had a history of mental illness.
