Noor's ex-partner says he feared for his life but considered deadly force premature

The former partner of an ex-Minneapolis police officer on trial for fatally shooting Justine Ruszczyk Damond testified that he feared for his life when a silhouette suddenly appeared outside their squad vehicle, but he didn't immediately know whether deadly force was needed.

Toward the end of officer Matthew Harrity's roughly five-hour testimony Thursday, the prosecution asked whether he'd been able to identify the silhouette's features or determine if she was armed before Mohamed Noor fired his gun.
