Oklahoma Bureau of Investigations to determine if man who was fatally shot by police was armed

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is trying to determine if a man who appeared to be threatening officers with a gun was actually armed when they fatally shot him this week, a spokesperson said Thursday.

Two Claremore police officers and and a Rogers County deputy shot Bobby Joe Johnston, 40, on Wednesday as he ran at them "in a threatening manner" along Interstate 44 in Claremore, about 25 miles northeast of Tulsa, OSBI spokesperson Brooke Arbeitman said.

Johnston was taken to a hospital where he died, Arbeitman said. Video from KOTV-TV shows Johnston running at armed officers, holding his hands in front of him as if pointing a handgun.

Oklahoma authorities are investigating if a man who was fatally shot by police was armed at the time of the shooting. The OSBI declined to say whether Johnston was armed. "That's what we're determining through the investigation," Arbeitman said.
