How they died
Deadly force
Two of the three Aurora police officers involved in the deadly shooting of a naked, machete-wielding man had been specially trained on how to defuse potentially violent interactions between police and mentally disturbed people, police said Wednesday. But it was unclear whether that training came into play Tuesday, when one of the three officers fatally shot Cecil Cochran, 55, after police said he lunged at them with the machete and a carving knife inside his home.
