Officer Daniel North – Martinsburg Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In March 2013, Officer Daniel North participated in the fatal shooting of Wayne Arnold Jones, a 50-year-old Black man, who was shot 22 times by five officers. The incident resulted in a $3.5 million settlement with Jones’ family. A federal appeals court condemned the officers’ actions, emphasizing that shooting an incapacitated, injured person who was not moving crossed a ‘bright line’ and could be held liable.
