Incident in an Alley is a 1962 American neo noir crime film directed by Edward L. Cahn and starring Chris Warfield, Erin O'Donnell and Harp McGuire. The film's premise rests on a legal precedent that police may use force against fleeing suspects if the suspect has committed a crime and is warned of the officer's intent to shoot.
And yet Incident in an Alley is a detective story, a courtroom drama, and a redemption story all in one. Officer Bill Joddy (Chris Warfield) accidentally shoots a boy named Harvey Connell (Bobby Fox) in the back, aiming for his leg. Bill is charged with first degree manslaughter.
