BATON ROUGE, La. — A Louisiana police officer escorting a state child welfare case worker at an apartment complex in Baton Rouge got into a struggle with a man, who was shot and killed, authorities say. The officer suffered minor injuries in the shooting Monday night, Louisiana State Police spokesman Trooper Bryan Lee said. He didn’t know whether the slain man was involved in the Department of Children and Family Service worker’s case. In July 2016, a white Baton Rouge police officer shot and killed a 37-year-old black man, Alton Sterling., outside a convenience store where he was selling homemade CDs.
