A Boston police officer<\/a> faces manslaughter charges after authorities said he shot and killed a suspected carjacker last week, according to reports.<\/p>\n

Boston 25 reported that 33-year-old Officer Nicholas O\u2019Malley of Randolph, Massachusetts<\/a>, was charged with manslaughter and arraigned in Roxbury District Court on Thursday afternoon. During his arraignment, a not guilty plea was entered for him as dozens of fellow officers packed the courtroom.<\/p>\n

The judge presiding over the arraignment allowed O\u2019Malley to be released on his own recognizance under the condition that he surrender all firearms in his possession.<\/p>\n

According to charging documents obtained by Boston 25<\/a>, investigators determined there is probable cause to believe O\u2019Malley committed voluntary manslaughter by intentionally firing at 39-year-old Stephenson King and causing his death without acting in proper self-defense or defense of another.<\/p>\n

Officers were initially responding to a reported carjacking on Tremont Street, where a woman told police she had been sitting in the passenger seat of her running vehicle when a man later identified as King allegedly assaulted her, dragged her out and drove off in the car, according to investigators.<\/p>\n

The documents state O\u2019Malley and another officer approached the stolen vehicle with their firearms drawn and ordered King to show his hands, shut off the car and unlock the doors. King, at times, raised his hands and partially opened his window but did not fully comply.<\/p>\n

Authorities say O\u2019Malley then warned, “Bro, I\u2019m gonna f***ing shoot you,” before King reversed into a cruiser and shifted between reverse and drive in an apparent attempt to flee. As the vehicle moved forward again, O\u2019Malley re-drew his firearm and fired three shots through the driver\u2019s side window, striking King.<\/p>\n

After being shot, King drove a short distance before crashing into a stone wall. Officers pulled him from the vehicle and attempted lifesaving measures before he was pronounced dead at a hospital, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Investigators said O\u2019Malley later claimed King “tried to run us over,” but body camera footage and witness accounts showed neither officer was in the vehicle\u2019s path at the time of the shooting. O\u2019Malley told investigators he believed his partner was about to be crushed, but authorities determined that belief was not reasonable.<\/p>\n

According to the autopsy, King was struck three times, with two bullets recovered from his torso and another found in the car\u2019s passenger-side seat. Investigators said no weapon was found on King or inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Investigators also pointed to Massachusetts law<\/a> prohibiting officers from firing at a moving vehicle unless necessary to prevent imminent harm and requiring that force be proportionate to the threat.<\/p>\n

The Boston Police Department did not respond to Fox News Digital\u2019s request for comment or for the body camera footage.<\/p>\n

Boston 25 reported that Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden said the video will not be publicly released due to the ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Malley is scheduled to return to court<\/a> in May.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
