The U.S. Justice Department has cleared a Mobile County Sheriff's Deputy of any wrongdoing in the shooting death of a teenager.
The Justice Department says Sgt. Paul Burch did nothing wrong when he shot and killed 18-year-old Robert Lucas in the Happy Hill community in November of last year. The Sheriff's Office says Lucas pointed a gun at Burch while running away. Burch shot him four times.
A grand jury cleared Burch back in April.
