Antonio Martin

How they died

Deadly force

An officer arrived at a convenience store in response to a reported shoplifter. The officer talked to two men outside the store who matched the description of the shoplifters. Martin made attempts to walk away while the officer was talking to him. The last time he was told to come back, Martin pulled out a gun and pointed it at the police officer. The officer fired his gun three times at Martin in response, killing him.
