Police shot and killed a man in Potomac, Maryland, Thursday while serving a warrant at a house, according to the Montgomery County Department of Police.
Officers were serving a “high risk” warrant for firearms-related offenses at a house in the 12200 block of St. James Road about 4:30 a.m. SWAT officers were entering the house when they encountered the suspect, identified as Duncan Socrates Lemp, 21. Lemp was shot fatally by an officer assigned to the Special Operations Division - Tactical Unit.
Lemp's family released a statement Thursday night saying they are grieving and plan to investigate his death and hold those responsible accountable.

The DEMOCRATIC parties plan for chaos and unrest is starting!!
Red flag laws??? another senseless death!
Invaded his home at 4:30 am to serve a warrant to give up his rights when there was no threat??? where is due process???
It put law enforcement in danger as well.
Democrats need to answer for this !
Hey Copper
come in my home at 4am
see what happens COPPER
They encountered the suspect, high risk, be a law abiding citizen and you don't have to deal with this.
Going to be more deaths with Virginia's Red Flag law.
I want to know what they call "high risk" and what the warrant was for. Criminal history on the dead man shows one traffic ticket. Doesn't sound like a career criminal.
You’ll do nothing but take the warrant and cry
Maybe you should look into it first

The police officer shot through the house as the young man was sleeping and killed him. Try again you Liberal Douche Bag!
The ones responsible for these Red Flag laws are Larry Hogan, Mary Beth Carozza, Carl Anderton and the rest of the Eastern Shore Delegation except Charles Otto and they have blood on their hands!
