A man fatally shot in a Portland city park on Friday by police had a replica gun, authorities said Monday.

Officers were sent to Lents Park on Saturday morning after someone reported that a man, later identified as 46-year-old Robert Douglas Delgado, was quick-drawing and holding what looked like a handgun, the Portland Police Bureau said in a news release with a timeline of the incident.

Two officers fired a 40mm device that shoots non-lethal projectiles, and one officer fired a gun, police said. Police previously identified the officer who fired his gun as Zachary Delong. He is on paid administrative leave, authorities said.
