ALLEGAN COUNTY, Mich. — Joseph Nagle’s death certificate lists his manner of death as a homicide.
Nagle was shot and killed by an Allegan County deputy on June 16.
The death certificate goes on to say Nagle’s death was caused by a gunshot fired by another person.
Homicide is defined as when a human brings about the death of another person. Not all homicides are considered murder, but homicides can be deemed lawful.
The death certificate says Nagle died at 10:17 p.m.
Michigan State Police previously stated Nagle was pulled over on the suspicion that he was driving while impaired, adding he and the deputy got into a fight before the deputy shot Nagle once in the chest.
Nagle was laid to rest Saturday, more than a month after he died.
