Prosecutors on Friday declined to charge the Aurora police officer who shot and killed an unarmed Black man in May.
Aurora Police officer Michael Dieck fired a single shot that killed 37-year-old Kilyn Lewis, who was being sought in Aurora on a warrant for attempted murder. APD was helping Denver Police track Lewis down at the time. Previously released body-worn camera video showed that as officers shouted commands at Lewis to get on the ground, he fumbled in a rear pocket for something, and eventually produced a dark-colored object he held above his head.
