Overview

• District Attorney Nate Bible said on Oct. 1 that no charges will be filed against the ATF special agent in the Sept. 18 shooting of 18-year-old Kendric Curtis Jr.
• Investigators say Curtis aimed a handgun at officers in an unmarked black SUV and fired twice, striking the passenger-side door, before the agent returned a single shot that hit Curtis in the head.
• Pennsylvania State Police recovered a Glock 43 9mm with an extended magazine that had been reported stolen, and the DA said Curtis was not legally permitted to possess the firearm.
• The encounter occurred during a joint ATF, FBI and municipal task force operation tied to the FBI’s Safe Streets initiative after a confidential informant reported an armed person in Linmar Terrace.
• Officials say parts of the probe remain open as community leaders press for more transparency about the operation and any available video, and the DA criticized inaccurate social media narratives and reported threats toward officers.
