The shooting occurred about 3:30 p.m. when an Idaho State Police trooper pulled over Williams in a traffic stop near Waltman Lane and Meridian Road. Williams reportedly ran from the trooper.
An altercation then occurred between the trooper and the suspect, resulting in the trooper firing his service weapon.
