At Rest

Deadly force
Bruce Kelley Jr. and his father, Bruce Kelley Sr., got into a fight. They escaped officers, but Port Authority Police caught up with them near the Hamnett Place bus stop. Police say Bruce Kelley Jr. refused orders and when using a stun gun didn't work, they released a police dog to capture Kelley. He stabbed the dog and the dog went down. Officers Dominic Rivotti and Sgt. Brian O'Malley shot and killed Kelley Jr. The dog also died.
This record exists so that Bruce T. Kelley Jr., and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
