At Rest

Deadly force
Officer Gary J. Buro and Officer Joseph G. Diman, 26, responded to a domestic dispute call placed to 911. The two-story, wood house was rented by two women whom police have not identified. Police said the officers talked to one woman at the door who told them Willie Anderson was armed before they entered the house. When they confronted Anderson and questioned him about where his weapon was, he shot Buro in the head. A shootout ensued with Diman firing a fatal shot at Anderson. Both Buro and Anderson died at the scene.
This record exists so that William M. “Willie” Anderson, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
