Officers asked to speak to Roe, and he agreed to come in and as they followed him into the lot at about 1:30 p.m. they discovered he had a handgun in the vehicle.

Before taking a shot Roe put a white piece of paper up to the window; according to police audio. Officers were called to the scene with their rifles. Then he gripped the gun with both hands before putting it up to his chin and shooting.
