At Rest

Deadly force
Police responded to a domestic violence call. Kramer had reportedly been drinking and was armed with a sword, threatening to kill a woman inside the home. Kramer had reportedly harmed himself. Police spoke with Kramer for several minutes and convinced Kramer to open the door. Kramer allegedly grabbed the sword and moved toward officers with it over his head. An officer reportedly used a Taser and bean bag projectile, and another officer shot and killed Kramer.
This record exists so that Kristopher M. Kramer, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
