MADISON, WI (WTAQ) – A Wisconsin police union says Madison officer Matt Kenny was sober in the hours after he shot and killed Tony Robinson almost three weeks ago.
The state’s Professional Police Association released test results Thursday of Kenny’s blood samples collected two hours after the incident on March 6th. The tests showed no signs of alcohol or other drugs in Kenny’s system.
Kenny shot Robinson after officers were told that the 19-year-old bi-racial man darted in and out of traffic, and beat someone. Police said Robinson punched the officer in the head before Kenny used deadly force.
The state Justice Department has said it would complete its investigation of the incident by Friday, and submit it to Dane County DA Ismael Ozanne for a decision on whether to prosecute the officer.
