St. Louis, MO. – A Lincoln County deputy was charged today with two counts of involuntary manslaughter for killing two men following an October traffic stop.
The sheriff's office says Nicholas Forler is expected to surrender.
The shooting happened October 23rd when Forler tried to pull over and extended-cab pickup truck for speeding near Troy.
The truck turned into a subdivision stopping on a driveway.
Forler pulled behind the truck, which began moving toward him.
The deputy fired, killing the driver, Tyler Teasley of Silex, and a passenger, Michael Brown of Troy.
Passengers in the truck have said it began moving backward only because Teasley left it in neutral.
