Des Moines police officers who shot and killed a 16-year-old boy who reportedly aimed a gun at them will not be charged, the Iowa Attorney General's office said.

The officers were legally justified in the shooting on Dec. 26 at the boy's grandmother's apartment, according to a report released Wednesday. The teenager was identified in court papers as T.J.

Four officers responding to a report of a domestic dispute involving T.J. and his stepfather found him at a nearby apartment where his grandmother lived.

Three Des Moines, Iowa, police officers who shot and killed a 16-year-old in December will not be charged as the shooting was justified, the state Attorney General's office announced.

Police body cameras and witness accounts all verify that T.J. was holding a pistol when officers arrived. He ignored about 70 pleas from officers, a friend and his grandmother to put the gun down during the nearly 5-minute confrontation, according to the report.
