(Providence, RI) -- A Portsmouth man is being found not guilty by reason of insanity in a police officer shooting case. The Providence Journal reports a Superior Court judge made the ruling on Thursday for Tyler Chandler, who shot at officers in Woonsocket in July of 2018, hitting one who survived. Judge Kristin Rodgers found that Chandler was grossly impaired by schizophrenia and could not be held criminally responsible. Chandler was ordered into the custody of the state so a determination can be made if he is able to have an unsupervised presence in the community.
