At Rest

Deadly force
About 8 p.m., officers were at the America's Best Value Inn to serve Jose Luis Rodriguez with a felony warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Officers saw Rodriguez leave a room with a handgun in his hand. Rodriguez allegedly attempted to hide behind his girlfriend and their baby as he exited. He refused to drop the gun, and an officer shot and killed him. A grand jury cleared the officer of criminal wrongdoing.
This record exists so that Jose Luis Rodriguez, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
