A U.S. customs agent will not be charged in the fatal shooting of a 20-year-old Detroit man, Worthy announced Wednesday. Evidence and witness statements showed Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Mitchell Quinn was "justified by the laws of self-defense" in the April 27 shooting death of Terrance Kellom, Worthy said. "Yes, black lives matter," Worthy said. "Of course they matter. But you know what else matters? Credible facts matter. ... Doing justice matters and the truth matters."

DETROIT – A prosecutor is expected to announce a decision on whether to bring charges in the fatal shooting of a 20-year-old Detroit man by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent.

Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy scheduled a Wednesday news conference. She's been investigating Terrance Kellom's April 27 death.

Police have said Kellom lunged at ICE agent Mitchell Quinn with a hammer before he was shot in his father's west side home. His father, Kevin Kellom, disputes that account.

An autopsy determined Terrance Kellom was shot multiple times, but Worthy ordered the report not be made public.

Kellom was wanted on armed robbery and weapons charges. His death came amid a national debate over police conduct — particularly toward black men. Kellom was black, as is the agent who shot him.
