How they died
Deadly force
Officer Matthew Spaller shot David E. Corbett during an alleged shootout in a subdivision. According to police, Corbett went to his ex-wife's home at about 2 p.m. They argued and Corbett reportedly cut her hand with a knife before she fled to a neighbor's home and called 911. Spaller arrived and told Corbett to put his hands up and stay where he was. Instead, Corbett reportedly began firing at Spaller with a .25-caliber pistol. Spaller returned fire, striking him fatally in the chest with the third shot.
