A White Fort Worth Police Officer Fatally Shot A Black Woman In Her Own Home

A white Fort Worth Texas Police officer fatally shot a black woman in her own home early Saturday morning.

According to CBS News, just before 2:30 a.m., police responded to a welfare call in the Hillside Morningside neighborhood, where a neighbor called a non-emergency line to report the front door to a residence was reportedly left open.

According to reports, when officers arrived, they searched the perimeter of the house and saw a person standing inside the residence, near a window.

In the body camera video released by police, two officers search the home from the outside with flashlights before one shout, “Put your hands up, show me your hands.” One shot is then fired through the window.

Fort Worth Police Department released a statement on Saturday afternoon that said an officer perceived a threat then drew his weapon. He fired one shot, striking and killing 28-year-old Atatiana Jefferson.

The officer, a white male who has been with FWPD since April 2018, has been placed on administrative leave pending an investigation. His name has not yet been released to the media.

Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price released a statement saying “A young woman has lost her life, leaving her family in unbelievable grief. All of Fort Worth must surround Atatiana Jefferson’s family with prayers, love, and support,” the statement read.

The mayor promised a “complete and thorough investigation” to be conducted by Police Chief Ed Kraus, which will then be forwarded to the Tarrant County District Attorney Law Enforcement Incident Team.
