The Clark County sheriff’s deputy who mistakenly shot and killed off-duty Vancouver police Officer Donald Sahota was identified by investigators Tuesday as Jonathan Feller.

Sahota, 52, died from gunshot wounds to the torso, the Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office announced earlier Tuesday. His death was ruled a homicide, meaning it resulted from another person’s deliberate action.
