How they died
Deadly force
Trooper Justin Rohr shot former drug task force informant Larry Dean Smith when Smith allegedly fired at him in a heavily wooded area west of Delphos. According to police, Rohr, Lt. John Riedel and trooper Michael Weigel responded after employees at the Delphos Co-op reported a suspicious man on the railroad tracks. While searching for footprints along a muddy creek bed, Rohr reportedly saw Smith crouched in a depression. Smith allegedly fired first before Rohr returned fire, killing Smith.
