Four city police officers have been placed on paid leave pending an investigation into the fatal shooting of Air Force veteran, Brenda Williams, 52 at her North Scranton home.
She was pronounced dead at Community Medical Center upon arrival after she was shot multiple times by officers inside her second-floor apartment at 1501 N. Lincoln Avenue.
Additional details about the incident, which apparently unfolded over the course of more than an hour, were difficult to come by Friday as investigators clamped a lid on the release of information.

This is a sad thing to happen to anyone that has survived the military. I hope justice is found in this situation. I love this Blog!
