The Huntsville police officer who fatally shot a suspect last week returned to work after prosecutors reviewing the case determined he could return to duty, a police spokeswoman said Friday.

“After a preliminary review of the case, the district attorney’s office agreed the officer could return to duty,” said Huntsville police spokeswoman Sydney Martin.

Sterling Keyon Arnold, 43, died last Friday after he was shot around 6 p.m. Sept. 14 near the 500 block of Monroe Street in Huntsville.

The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency said Arnold had a gun when he was fatally shot during the encounter with officers.

A protest was scheduled for Friday night in Big Spring Park to demand police release body cam footage of the incident, according to Fox 54. The station reported at least one person was arrested during the demonstration.
