How they died
Deadly force
A father called Houston police because he believed his son was suicidal. After law enforcement attempted to make contact with Rivera from outside the home, he left the residence armed with a hand gun, walking down a driveway before turning back toward the home. Police said Rivera was then contacted by two WPD officers, who he began shooting at. The officers returned fire, killing Rivera.
