Woman killed durinj
burglary investigation
McKINNEY, Texas (AP) —
Cathey Howard-Kalimah knew
all about security. She taught it
to aspiring security guards and
prolice academy students at the
North Texas Job Corpus branch
in this North Texas town.
That is why friends and
neighbors remained baffled
Wednesday as to how the 31-
year-old mother of two could
have been shot to death in her
home Tuesday afternoon by a
police officer’s gun. Police said it
accidentally discharged during a
burglary investigation.
Friend and former colleague
Rakelle Sanford said Howard-
Kalimah would have known to
be cautious when she came
home Tuesday to check on a
burglar alarm that had started
going off that afternoon.
Sanford said she blames the
police for what happened.
“They definitely messed upi,”
said Sanford, 26, who was at the
family’s home to drop off a card
and flowers. “Cathey knew the
security trade. She teaches it.”
Police Chief Doug Kowalski
said at a news conference
Wednesday that the department
is investigating the incident
with the assistance of the Plano
Police Department, Collin
County Sheriff’s Office and the
Collin C6unty Medical Exam
iner’s Office. The case will he
presented to a Collin County
grand jury for review.
“This is going to be a fair, thor
ough, objective investigation,”
Kowalski said. “T here is nothing
to hide here.” He has refused to
release the name of the officer.
The shooting occurred after
the officer walked around the
outside of the house and saw the
back door slightly open. As the
officer attempted to go inside,
the door apparently popiped
open, hit the officer’s depart
ment-issued .40-caliber Clock
handgun and caused it to fire,
police said.
A single bullet went through
the door, striking Howard-
