At Rest

Deadly force
Officer George Ciganik shot Rodney D. Mathews, 24, in the head, killing him, as Mathews brandished a handgun from the porch roof of his home in Marshall-Shadeland. A neighbor had summoned police because Mathews had discharged his gun several times. During an exchange of gunfire with police, Mathews shot an officer in the foot.
This record exists so that Rodney Dale Mathews, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
