Madison police officer Matthew Kenny will not be indicted for fatally shooting 19-year-old Tony Robinson, Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne announced Tuesday.

The decision comes more than two months after Kenny shot and killed unarmed Robinson at an apartment on the 1100 block of Williamson Street March 6.

The state’s Department of Justice conducted the investigation on the officer-involved-shooting and turned all findings over to Ozanne at the end of March.

Based on his investigation, which included detailed interviews, video footage and 911 calls, Ozanne, a University of Wisconsin graduate and the state’s first African American district attorney, said no charges will be brought against Kenny.
