Prosecutor clears officers who killed suspect in cop slaying


The two Massachusetts troopers who shot and killed a man suspected of killing a police officer last year acted reasonably and lawfully, prosecutors conclude in a report released Wednesday. The Worcester County District Attorney's office says troopers' use of deadly force on 35-year-old Jorge Zambrano in May 2016 was appropriate. Two other troopers then fatally shot Zambrano. According to the report, shell casings found at the scene where Tarentino was shot matched a firearm found in the Zambrano's hands. A toxicology report found Zambrano tested positive for cocaine metabolite and cannabinoid, a chemical compound found in marijuana.
