Officer Alleges Jonathan Price Reached For His Taser Before Fatal Shooting

Jonathan Price is the latest victim of a police shooting, being shot dead by Officer Shaun Lucas in Wolfe City, Texas. The 31-year-old man’s killing has people calling for justice, especially after Lucas was released on a $1 million bond

Price reportedly was trying to break up a domestic dispute, attempting to stop a man from hitting a woman at a gas station. He has been described by his friends as a “good man” without a history of crime, calling this a blatant “act of racism”.

As more information continues to come out about the shooting, Officer Lucas is speaking out via his attorney to try and justify his actions.

Making a statement to CBS 11 News, Defense Attorney Robert L. Rogers said:

“Officer Lucas responded to a fight in progress call. He saw several people gathered at the front of the store. Mr. Price approached Officer Lucas. Mr. Price did not claim to be an uninvolved, innocent party. Officer Lucas told Mr. Price he was detained, and Mr. Price resisted. After Mr. Price refused repeated instructions and physically resisted, Officer Lucas deployed his Taser and continued to give Mr. Price instructions. Mr. Price resisted the effects of the Taser and attempted to take it away from Officer Lucas. Officer Lucas only discharged his weapon in accordance with Texas law when he was confronted with an aggressive assailant who was attempting to take his Taser.”

Lucas was arrested on Monday (October 5) for the shooting death of Price.

Hopefully, the family of Jonathan Price receives justice.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
