Ex-Philadelphia police officer surrenders on murder charges after fatal shooting of Eddie Irizarry

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A former Philadelphia police officer who shot and killed a driver has turned himself in to face murder charges. Former Officer Mark Dial surrendered on a criminal warrant and was scheduled to be arraigned later Friday. The district attorney said the charges against Dial include murder, official oppression and other counts. The district attorney’s office also released police bodycam footage of the fatal shooting of 27-year-old Eddie Irizarry. The video showed Dial firing his weapon through the driver’s side window of Irizarry’s sedan during a vehicle stop. Dial’s attorney says the officer feared for his life and that the shooting was justified.
