At Rest

Deadly force
Two officers walked into a southwest Baltimore home to investigate a report of a burglary and found two men inside wearing clothing bearing the word "police." One of the men was armed with a handgun, police said, and two officers fatally shot him after he did not follow orders to drop his weapon. The man who was killed was identified as Bernard Lofton, 22, of Parkville.
This record exists so that Bernard Lofton, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
