More on the shooting death of Officer Jeremy Labonte (from 11Alive.com):
Suspect Edward Espinoza, 23, is accused of firing on Labonte as the officer responded to a suspicious person call on Feb. 7 night near Market Boulevard in the parking lot near the ACE Pickleball Club.
There are still no details about what was reported as suspicious in the call. The GBI described Espinoza pulling a handgun as Officer Labonte approached and firing multiple shots. An exact timeline of the events Friday hasn’t been released, but Roswell PD said Espinoza was “immediately located and taken into custody” after shooting Labonte.
Espinoza’s charges include malice murder, the most serious murder charge in Georgia, felony murder, aggravated assault on a peace officer, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, according to the GBI.
