Officer killed in Toledo neighborhood



TOLEDO (AP) -- A police detective who interrupted a drug deal was shot and killed early Wednesday while chasing a 15-year-old boy in a neighborhood plagued by drugs and violence, police said.
The boy surrendered to police about eight hours after the shooting, emerging from a duplex where he had been hiding.
Prosecutors said they will seek to charge Robert Jobe as an adult.
Detective Keith Dressel, 35, is the first Toledo officer to die in the line of duty since 1970.
The detective was shot once in the chest during a brief chase and shootout through a thick fog, said Police Chief Mike Navarre.
The officers thought they had a pair of curfew violators, Navarre said. "I don't think they looked at this as a high-risk stop," he said.
But when the officers not in uniform identified themselves, Jobe and Sherman Powell, 19, took off running.
Two officers quickly stopped Powell while Dressel pursued Jobe.
"There was an exchange of gunfire. We know that Detective Dressel did fire his weapon," Navarre said.
