How they died
Deadly force
Rios followed a woman and her 3-year-old daughter out of their apartment house elevator and threatened them with a gun. In response the woman's husband, an NYPD officer in his boxer shorts, emerged from the apartment. As the officer chased Rios downstairs they exchanged gunfire, and Rios was found fatally wounded on the street shortly thereafter.
