Police officer who shot and killed 1-year-old boy in Mississippi has resigned, local mayor says

Sgt. Hunter Foster, 33, has resigned from his position after shooting and killing a 1-year-old boy in Mississippi. This resignation follows a monthslong probe by the Mississippi Attorney General’s office, which concluded earlier this week that the officer's use of force was justified. Consequently, the Attorney General’s office cleared Foster of any criminal wrongdoing regarding the incident. The local mayor confirmed the officer's resignation following the conclusion of the official investigation into the fatal shooting.
