ROANOKE, Va. – The Roanoke City Commonwealth’s Attorney announced his findings Wednesday after a months-long investigation into a officer-involved shooting in October 2019. On October 16, Chase Austin was shot and killed by Roanoke Officer Martinez after Virginia State Police said Austin became confrontational and pointed a semi-automatic pistol at Martinez. Whatever his motivation, Mr. Austin introduced the element of deadly force into what was otherwise a relatively benign situation. Officer Martinez has an obligation to protect the general public from threats such as the one presented by Mr. Austin. Therefore, I am of the opinion that, under the law of Virginia, Officer Martinez was legally justified in the use of deadly force to protect his own life as well as the lives of others in this situation.
