Allegheny County, PA – On December 20 at approximately 2:55 p.m., 22-year-old Koby Lee Francis of McKeesport entered the McKeesport Police station. He was served with a Protection from Abuse (PFA) order, after which he left the station.
At 3:59 p.m., McKeesport Police were called to 1505 Yester Square for a report of a PFA violation. When officers arrived, they observed Francis seated in a vehicle outside of the residence, a violation of the PFA order. Officers took Francis into custody at 4:04 p.m., seizing a firearm from the vehicle as well.
Francis was allegedly combative upon arrest during the transport to the McKeesport Police station. He allegedly kicked out a window of the car while being transported. Upon arrival at the station, the officer opened the door of the vehicle to remove the subject.
When the door opened, Francis had a second firearm and allegedly shot the officer three times in the neck and torso. At 4:18 p.m., the McKeesport officer went on air and said that he had been shot. Video captured a minute later is of the subject fleeing on foot, still wearing handcuffs. Francis had been handcuffed with his arms behind him, but the video reflects that the handcuffs are now in front of him.
