How they died

Deadly force

Sumandor Alli, 72, had called 911, just as he had done before whenever his son, Gregory, stopped taking his medication and acted out. This time, however, Gregory, a schizophrenic, had turned violent, stabbing his father with a blunt knife. When Mount Olive patrolman Joseph Abrusci arrived at the front door of the Budd Lake home about 1:30 a.m., Gregory Alli charged him, waving a serrated knife and ignoring the officer's commands to drop it, police said. Abrusci shot and killed him.
