Dennis P. “Heb” Heberlie III

Deadly force

Officer Michael Coon shot and killed unarmed Dennis P. "Heb" Heberlie, who suffered from paranoid schizophrenia, at his grandmother's home following a pursuit. At about 10 p.m., Coon responded to a disturbance at a Conoco gas station. Coon tried to stop Heberlie, but he drove off and a pursuit ensued. Coon learned Heberlie's identity and address through a license plate check and went to the home accompanied by deputy Scott Lahay. Heberlie allegedly tried to run to the back of the trailer, then got into a scuffle with Coon before the officer shot him. In 2007, Coon and Lahay agreed to pay $600,000 to Heberlie's family, though neither admitted liability in Heberlie's death.
