Deadly force
Rosson, suicidal and armed with a 9mm pistol, parked his brown van near a residence. Law enforcement and family converged on the location. Trooper James C. Blount II, saw a muzzle flash come from the van, pointing skyward. He told Rosson to throw the pistol out of the van. Rosson leaned his head out of the driver's side window and pointed the pistol at Trooper Blount. Trooper Blount, armed with an M-4 rifle, shot Rosson in the face.
