How they died
Deadly force
Police were called to investigate a dispute between Jeffrey Haarsma and his neighbor. The neighbor told police Haarsma had been giving her a hard time, took some of her belongings and threw them in the dumpster. The officer, 34-year-old Alison Savarese, said Haarsma appeared aggressive when she tried talking with him. As she tried to detain him, he allegedly refused and pushed back so she tackled him to the ground. Once they got up, Haarsma grabbed her around the neck, and she shot and killed him.
