Des Moines Police Chief Defends Rookie Officers in Death
Des Moines Police Chief Wendell Nichols called the shooting death of 14 year old Clarence Jackson Sunday a tragic thing while defending the actions of two rookie officers. He ordered a full inquiry into the death after Jackson was shot in the back of the head by a 38 caliber revolver while fleeing following a collision between a stolen auto and a police patrol car. Officers William Hanson and William Trimble chased the stolen car and, after the crash, pursued three occupants into a wooded area. It was not determined which gun fired the fatal shot.
