How they died
Deadly force
Police had Coloma's residence identified as a "hazardous house" based on his aggressive mental condition and their numerous previous calls. A single officer was actually sent out to take photographs in preparation for a full SWAT effort to take him to a psychiatric facility per a judge's order. But that officer was engaged by a violent Coloma. After pepper spray and a physical struggle Coloma was fatally shot.
