RALEIGH, N.C. — Raleigh police said a man died Saturday after four police officers shot him outside of a police station in Southeast Raleigh.
Police officers shot him after they saw him throwing “multiple” Molotov cocktails at vehicles in a parking lot near the police station, Chief Estella Patterson said at a news conference Saturday night. He then threw the “incendiary weapons” toward officers, and one came within close proximity of an officer, Patterson said.
On Sunday, police still had not released the man’s name or provided any other information about him. Patterson said family had been notified of his death.
