How they died
Deadly force
Sergeant Steven Schindlbeck shot and killed David Kasmar when he allegedly fired at the officer. According to police, Kasmar was legally drunk and furious with his wife for burning his chicken dinner. She called 911 after he kicked in the door to the bedroom where she'd retreated with her children. A DuPage County coroner's jury determined that the shooting was justified. This was reportedly the Naperville department's first fatal police shooting in more than 50 years.
