(KNOX/KFGO/KBRF) – The man shot and killed by Otter Tail County SWAT in rural Battle Lake last Friday has been identified.
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says Officer Matthew Cederberg shot 39-year-old Christopher Olson.
Cederberg has been placed on critical incident leave after he and other law enforcement agencies responded to a report of Olson barricading himself, after he apparently hit some with the butt of a shotgun.
Cederberg is a Fergus Falls Police Officer who has 16 years of law enforcement experience and is part of the Otter Tail County SWAT team that responded. The Otter Tail County Sheriff’s Office has requested the BCA investigate.
