A Stella Sheriff
Camina Figueroa called 911. Her son-in-law had been using drugs for days, she said, and now he was acting irrationally. When Harris County (Texas) Sheriff’s deputy Brady Pullen arrived, he says Kemal Yazar attacked him, so Pullen shot and killed the man. Pullen was bitten and sustained a broken nose, so he’s suing Figueroa, claiming she didn’t adequately warn dispatchers that the situation was dangerous. (AC/KPRC Houston) ...Because people always call 911 about safe situations.Original Publication Date: 25 August 2013
