San Diego police officer fatally shoots gay man; his third shooting since 2013

A San Diego police officer who fatally shot a gay man on Friday has killed three people in less than three years.

The victim, 30-year-old Joshua Adam Sisson (pictured), was allegedly holding a large kitchen knife to his boyfriend’s neck before fleeing the scene of the domestic dispute....

Sisson, who was wanted for a parole violation, was employed at Camp Pendleton and studied computer science at California College San Diego....

“He was only 30,” his mother writes. “Contrary to the media reports he was a wonderful young man and overcame many obstacles…I need help bringing him home to Pennsylvania and giving him the burial he deserves.”
