At Rest

Deadly force

At about 1:45 p.m., police responded to a disturbance on Union Pacific Railroad property and encountered Arzola near his SUV, which was parked on the railroad tracks under the Central Avenue Bridge. The officers shot Arzola when he allegedly came toward them with the knife.
This record exists so that John P. Arzola, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
