Summary: |
Detective Sergeant Tommy Smith was accidentally shot and killed by another officer while conducting a probation check and warrant service at an apartment on Dougherty Road, in Dublin, at approximately 1:00 pm. The subject they were searching for was wanted for several robberies on BART property.
The officers conducting the check had made a force entry into the apartment when a round was discharged, striking Sergeant Smith. He was transported to Eden Medical Center where he succumbed to the wound.
The subject wanted in the initial search was not in the apartment at the time. However, he was taken into custody a short time later.
Sgt Smith was the first BART officer killed in the line of duty in its 42-year history.
