Good thing she had a gun to protect herself.
ATLANTA - Attorneys for a niece of the 92-year-old woman who was killed by police during a botched drug raid have filed a wrongful death claim with the city as a precursor to a lawsuit.
Kathryn Johnston was shot on Nov. 21 when narcotics officers burst into her home with a no-knock warrant. The officers said an informant reported buying drugs there, but prosecutors say they were lying. Johnston fired one shot at the intruders, hitting no one, and the officers fired back, killing her.
