How they died

Deadly force

Officers Darryl Nelson, David Martinez and Frederick Saldana were assisting the Drug Enforcement Administration in serving a warrant at a home. They entered the home rumored to contain 20 kilograms of cocaine and discovered Aldo Carreno Rodriguez lying on the ground covered in a sheet. Rodriguez reportedly threw off the sheet and pointed a gun directly at them, and the officers shot and killed him.
