At Rest

Deadly force
Canyon County Sheriff's deputies responded about 8:22 a.m. on a report of a domestic disturbance. During the course of the call, Sidney Holst barricaded himself in the residence. About 1:30 p.m., the man left the back of the home with a handgun. Holst reportedly failed to obey commands and a police dog was sicced on him. He allegedly pointed the gun at officers, and two deputies shot and killed him.
This record exists so that Sidney Holst, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
