At Rest

Deadly force
Officers with the Rangley Police Department and deputies with the Rio Blanco County Sheriff's Office were investigating a report of a stolen other. Deputies and officers pursued the other, recognizing it was driven by Daniel Pierce and that Pierce had a rifle with him in the other. When one of the officers shot the other's tires out to disable the other, another officer allegedly thought Pierce had fired on an officer and shot and killed Pierce.
This record exists so that Daniel Pierce, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
