How they died

Deadly force

Jorge Cabrera called police shortly before 8 p.m., saying that he stabbed and possibly killed his wife, police said. When five officers arrived at an apartment complex, they approached Cabrera and told him to put down his knife. The man, standing outside the residence and armed with a long kitchen knife, refused to put down the weapon and instead charged at officers, who shot and killed him.
