A Washington state police officer fatally shot a man during an altercation at a park late Tuesday after investigators say the man reached for the officer’s gun.

The incident happened shortly after 11 p.m. when a Snoqualmie/North Bend police officer approached a man who was at Torguson Park in North Bend after hours, the King County Independent Force Investigation Team (IFIT-KC), which is investigating the officer-involved shooting, said in a news release.

Police later said the man was homeless and not from the area, FOX13 Seattle reported.

The officer suffered minor injuries, according to the release. Authorities have not released the names of the involved officer or the man who died.
