Louis J. Capone

How they died

Deadly force

Police on a mid-afternoon call to Capone's apartment complex met with his half-brother, who described a history of suicidal actions and attempting to get weapons. Police then forced their way into Capone's unit and found him wounded, holding a knife, on a blood-splattered bed. After a dramatic confrontation police fatally shot him.
