A relative requested an "emergency risk protection order" against Gary J. Willis, 60. It was granted, as they pretty much always are, with pretty much zero review. This is one of those things where you loose your rights up front and petition the courts later for redress.
The cops knocked on his door at 0500. He answered the door with a gun in his hand. (As would I.) He put the gun down when he realized there were cops at the door. So far, so good.
The cops announced they were there to seize his guns. He didn't like that. He then picked his gun back up. One cop wrestled with the 60-year old man. The gun discharged, striking no one. Then another cop gunned Willis down.
Mr. Willis' niece offered the opinion that the protection order request was family drama and that Willis was in no way a danger to himself or others. He cops have so far not released the name of the person who requested the order or what basis was used for the request.
