Two Wisconsin officers were justified when they shot and killed a man who got in a gunfight with police that left a city firefighter dead in the crossfire last month, a prosecutor said Thursday. Christensen and Biese exchanged shots with 47-year-old Ruben Houston of Wausau on May 15 outside of Appleton's downtown transit center. "We lost one of our own and officers were forced to make difficult decisions and risked their lives to protect our community," Tempelis said. When the bus arrived in at transit center, a bus passenger believed Houston was having a seizure and called 911 for help. Houston eventually went to the ground, which allowed officers equipped with a ballistic shield to arrest him.
