Night Policeman Jesse Starks

Policeman Starks was shot and killed with his own service weapon after responding to a disturbance at a local theater. When he arrived at the scene he discovered that his son-in-law had been ejected from it for causing a disturbance. The son-in-law and five relatives had then returned to the theater armed with weapons.

As Policeman Starks attempted to calm the situation one of the men pulled his service weapon from its holster and shot him.

The man was arrested and charged with murder.
