The incident occurred in Temple Hills, a suburb of Washington, about 8 p.m. after police received a 911 call about a driver who struck multiple cars, said Christina Cotterman, a spokeswoman for Prince George’s County Police Department. Officers believed Green was under the influence of a substance and removed him from his car, according to a Tuesday police statement. While Owen and another officer waited for a drug recognition expert, they handcuffed Green and placed him in the front seat of Owen’s police car. “A short time later, for reasons that are now at the center of the investigation, Green was shot seven times by the officer’s duty weapon,” the statement says.
