David Koliba

How they died

No

Deputies were flagged down by a Metro rail patron who told them a man had just been shot on the C-Line Platform at the Metro station. Four deputies spotted the gunman waiting on the platform. He jumped down to the eastbound rail tracks and fired a handgun at the deputies, and the deputies shot and wounded him. The suspect walked up behind Koliba and shot him in the back of his head. Reports of this death are so convoluted it's impossible to tell the sequence of events and whether deputies were present when Koliba was killed.
