The defense rested Friday in the homicide trial of a white police officer charged with shooting and killing an unarmed black teenager near Pittsburgh, signaling the jury will soon get the case. Video showed Rosfeld shooting Rose in the back, arm and side of the face as he fled. The former officer told a jury he thought Rose or another suspect had a gun. Rosfeld testified Thursday he thought Rose or the other passenger had pointed a weapon at him. Prosecutors say Rosfeld gave inconsistent statements about the shooting, including whether he thought Rose had a gun.
