How they died
Deadly force
About 9:30 p.m., deputies responded to a report of domestic violence in Spanaway. A woman had called 911 to report that her boyfriend, Robert Smith Jr., was intoxicated and armed, and she had locked herself in the bathroom. Once there, deputies said they confronted Smith at the front door of the home. He was allegedly armed with a handgun in a hip holster. He allegedly did not comply with orders not to touch his handgun. Then deputies said Smith drew the handgun out of his holster toward the deputies, and they shot and killed him.
