Authorities say a man was shot in a police shooting in east Baltimore.
It happened about 2:40 a.m. Tuesday in the first block of South Robinson Street, near Baltimore Street.
Police say officers broke up a fight between two men and arrested one of them. According to police spokesman Donny Moses, the man was being patted down by an officer and reached for a gun. That's when, an officer fired several times. Police say the man ran, then collapsed a short distance away and died at the scene.
Nancy Worrell says the man was her son, Bryant. She said her son was developmentally disabled and recently graduated from a special high school. She claims that as police searched him, they choked him. And she says her son was shot in the back after he broke away.
