Authorities have disclosed more details about the June 27 fatal shooting of a woman by police in North Branch, Minn.

The Midwest Medical Examiner’s Office has identified the woman as Jamie Ann Crabtree, 36, of North Branch. She died of multiple gunshot wounds.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension has also identified two North Branch police officers who used force during the incident. They are both on paid administrative leave.

According to the BCA, Kyle Miller used non-lethal force. He has a year-and-a-half of law enforcement experience. Duane Southworth fired his department rifle. He has two years of law enforcement experience.

The agency said that the officers responded to an evening report of a woman, later identified as Crabtree, walking down the street with a bottle of alcohol and a handgun in a case.

The officers ordered her to drop the gun case, which she did not acknowledge. Miller deployed PepperBall rounds. Crabtree can be seen on squad car camera appearing to point an object at the officers. That’s when Southworth fired his rifle multiple times, striking Crabtree.

She was pronounced dead at Lakes Region Emergency Medical Services, the BCA said.

BCA investigators recovered a handgun, a gun case and rifle cartridge casings at the scene.

Officer body camera and squad car camera video captured portions of the incident.

The BCA is reviewing the video and investigating the incident. Once the investigation is complete, the agency will present its findings without a charging recommendation to the Washington County Attorney’s Office for review. Washington County is handling the case to avoid a conflict of interest with the Chisago County Attorney’s Office.

According to KSTP-TV, Crabtree’s husband called 911 and reported that his wife was intoxicated and suicidal. He also told KSTP that his wife had suffered from mental illness and was known to North Branch police.

The BCA didn’t address any of those details in its announcement on Wednesday.
