(KSL News) Prosecutors will not charge a security guard who shot and killed a man outside a Salt Lake City restaurant.
Michael James May was fatally wounded outside of Mama's Plantation on July 9.
George Harrison, who works as a part-time security guard at the restaurant, says he shot Mays in self-defense. He says Mays started yelling at him and looked like he was pulling something, perhaps a gun, out of a backpack.
The District Attorney's Office says it won't press homicide charges because its investigation determined Harrison fired his gun because he truly feared for his life.
