Anthony Dias Duarte

Deadly force

Six hours of attempted negotiation, starting in the early evening and stretching to 3 a.m., proved unsuccessful when Diaz Duarte stormed out of his mother's house and started a firefight with local and county officers. He'd threatened his mother with a handgun; she'd escaped the house and called 911. Diaz Duarte wounded one officer in the ankle before being fatally shot.
