How they died
Deadly force
Joe Jackson reportedly went to the high-rise office of intellectual property law firm Wood, Phillips, Katz, Clark & Mortimer, chained the doors behind him and opened fire, killing three men, wounding a woman and taking a hostage before SWAT officers Felipe Nunez and Charles Rhein shot him. Police said Jackson arrived at the office in the Citigroup Center just before 3:15 p.m. armed with a revolver, a knife and a sledgehammer. "Over the next several minutes, he shot four victims," said Supt. Philip Cline. Jackson held another man hostage for about an hour, until Nunez and Rhein shot him. Jackson died at the scene.
