The family of a Black Fort Myers man who was shot and killed during an officer-involved shooting will hold a news conference [ today along with the NAACP].
Christopher Jordan, 57, was killed in his Stella Street home on Dec. 1 during the shooting, after his sister called Fort Myers police to say she felt threatened by Jordan [who reportedly suffered from mental illness].
According to FMPD, they attempted to talk to Jordan, who had barricaded himself within his home and allegedly shouted threats while pointing a gun at officers.
The NAACP will join Jordan’s family at the front door of Christopher’s home to discuss and demand answers from Fort Myers Police regarding the shooting.
