Deadly force
Officer Robert Cossia shot Kyle Dismukes when Dismukes allegedly dragged him during a traffic stop. Dismukes, a rapper from Overland, had finished performing at the Cougars nightclub in Normandy when the officer stopped him for a traffic violation in the 2700 block of Kienlen Avenue at about 1:45 a.m. Dismukes allegedly grabbed Cossia's arm as he approached the window and sped away, dragging Cossia, who then shot Dismukes. According to police, Cossia had been with the Pine Lawn force less than a year when he shot Dismukes.
