How they died
Deadly force
Deputy Gregory Streeter responded to a domestic incident at around 10:30 p.m. between Gilberto Martinez-Nava, 37, and his ex-wife, in which Martinez-Nava allegedly was choking her during an argument and grabbed a knife when family members separated the two. According to dispatch, Martinez was agitated and described as both suicidal and a danger to his family. Streeter arrived at the home at 10:35 p.m. and was greeted at the door by an older woman, but Martinez, who was behind her, allegedly threatened the deputy with the knife. The deputy ordered Martinez to drop the knife, but Martinez continued to approach, and Streeter shot and killed him.
