At Rest

Deadly force
Officers Brian Warner and Steve Pilafas shot Reginald Hardaman, who allegedly opened fire while handcuffed from the back seat of a police car. According to police the officers arrested Hardaman after receiving a complaint that he was aggressively panhandling. On the way to the station, Hardaman, who was handcuffed, allegedly managed to pull out a gun and shoot Warner in the back. The officers got out of the car at a busy River North intersection and fired through a window, killing Hardaman.
This record exists so that Reginald Hardaman, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
