A high school senior and football star was shot dead by a police officer after allegedly attacking two deputies.
Dyzhawn Perkins, 19, was approached by the deputies in Buckingham County, Virginia, following a call that Perkins was attacking people inside of a store on Saturday. Perkins was also knocking over shelves and products inside Solo Mart in Scottsville, according to witnesses.
Deputies say Perkins attacked them near the store after they tracked him down, prompting one to fire his gun.
He's not like that. That wasn't him. Something had to be wrong.
