How they died
Deadly force
According to the Argus Leader: Rapid City Police Officer Spencer O'Bryan spotted a suspicious man near his home. O'Bryan turned on his flashlight and saw Liberty crouched behind a fence. Liberty stood up and shined a flashlight in the off-duty officer's face. O'Bryan drew his weapon and said "I have a gun and I'm a cop." Liberty got down on the sidewalk when ordered to and told O'Bryan he had a gun. Liberty then got up from the sidewalk and approached O'Bryan. He ignored orders to stop and began to draw his gun. O'Bryan fired five times, all five shots hit Liberty, who died.
