At Rest

Deadly force
A police officer began pursuing Jose Luis Centento after he failed to stop for a school bus that was unloading. The slow speed chase ended after several miles when Centento drove off road and got stuck. With their guns drawn, officers commanded Centento to get out of the car but Centento shot at them with a replica handgun powered by CO2. Five officers opened fire, killing the boy.
This record exists so that Jose Centeno Jr., and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
