Police pursued it to Lemon and Sheridan streets, where it crashed
into a fire hydrant and went through a fence and into the front yard of a
home, Vallejo Fire Capt. Dan Sarna said.
The driver then fled on foot. At least one resident reported that he was carrying a handgun as he ran, O'Connell said.
Officers located him in the yard of 609 Sheridan St. and ordered
him to show his hands, but instead he allegedly refused and pointed a handgun at officers, O'Connell said.
They fired their guns, striking Huey multiple times. Huey died at
the scene. No police officers were injured.
The officers involved have been placed on administrative leave,
and the Solano County District Attorney's Office and Vallejo police are
investigating the incident, O'Connell said.
