ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Albuquerque Police Chief Gorden Eden admits he made a mistake when he said officers were justified in killing a homeless camper in the Sandia foothills. Eden told reporters Monday he agreed with Mayor Richard Berry's criticism that it was premature to say officers' actions were justified in the fatal shooting of 38-year-old James Boyd on March 16. Berry said Monday it was wrong for the new police chief to make that judgment at a press conference. Authorities said Boyd died after officers fired stun guns, bean bags and six live rounds. Eden said Boyd had threatened to kill officers and held onto knives as an unarmed K-9 officer approached him. A helmet camera video showed Boyd gathering his belongings then turning away right before officers fired. The case is under investigation. sfgate.com
