Nashville police officer Andrew Delke, charged with first-degree murder after an on-duty shooting, pleaded not guilty today, the Tennessean reports. Delke was charged with fatally shooting Daniel Hambrick during a July 26 foot chase in North Nashville. He told investigators he fired in self-defense after he saw Hambrick pointing a gun at him. Prosecutors don't dispute the fact that Hambrick was armed, but they say video footage of the chase shows Hambrick running away from Delke, never turning to face him.
