 OLATHE, Kan. (AP)   A man who was fatally shot by a suburban Kansas City police officer inside a Dollar General store has been identified as 21-year-old Cody M. Kincheloe of Olathe.  

Police said Kincheloe confronted an Olathe officer who had gone into the store Friday night to investigate reports of a car driving east in the westbound lanes of a nearby street.  
The Associated Press reports the officer found the suspect car in the parking lot of the store around 8 p.m., and witnesses said the driver had gone inside.  

Police said Kincheloe displayed a handgun and the officer shot him. Kincheloe died at the scene.  

The officer wasn't injured.
