Buttigieg's 2020 campaign said Monday that he has canceled a trip to California on Tuesday and Wednesday that was going to include a series of fundraisers and a policy roll-out, and will remain in South Bend to respond to the shooting, which happened early Sunday. Just after 3 a.m. Sunday, South Bend police responded to a suspicious person they later said was believed to be going through cars at an apartment complex, NBC affiliate WDNU reported. When an officer engaged with the suspect, 53-year-old Eric Jack Logan, Logan allegedly approached the officer with a knife. The officer then fired at Logan, who was taken to a hospital and soon after pronounced dead. The officer was treated for minor injuries.
Buttigieg met privately with Logan's family on Sunday night, his wife, Shafonia Logan, told NBC News on Monday."The incident is not adding up," Logan's brother, Clifford Bonds, said,. “All we can do is wait. He got five kids, a wife, a mother, nieces, nephews, everybody, brothers and sisters, trying to figure out what’s going on. And the story they’re giving, everybody in the family knows that’s not him, so that just makes it worse.
