At Rest

Deadly force
St. Charles city police shot and killed Richard J. Stone after he allegedly pointed a pellet gun at them. At about 8:35 p.m., four officers arrived at Stone's house in the Mark Twain Mobile Home Park to question him about a robbery. According to police, Stone was slow to answer, and pointed the pellet gun at the officers when he finally opened the door.
This record exists so that Richard J. Stone, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
