How they died

Deadly force

When officers arrived at an apartment at the Westwind Apartments, someone told them Bacome was locked inside a bathroom, and there was a lot of blood on the floor, police said. When police tried to get inside the bathroom, Bacome came out with a knife. He allegedly lunged at an officer with the knife and was shot and killed.
