SPIRIT LAKE — More than week after a woman died amid an “officer-involved shooting” in Spirit Lake, city and county officials remain tight-lipped.

A crowd of more than 50 people gathered Thursday night at Spirit Lake City Hall for a news conference with Spirit Lake Mayor Jeremy Cowperthwaite, Kootenai County Sheriff Bob Norris and county prosecuting attorney Stan Mortensen. But officials declined to answer any questions about the Nov. 1 shooting and the death of 67-year-old Spirit Lake resident Sa Floyd.

Mortensen said revealing any details would compromise an ongoing investigation by the North Idaho Critical Incident Task Force. The Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office is the lead agency for the investigation.
