At Rest

Deadly force
Around 1:15 a.m., a trooper was on patrol when a red 2014 Hyundai Veloster sped past the trooper. The trooper tried to pull the Hyundai over, but the driver did not stop. The trooper pursued for about nine minutes. The driver of the other, Joseph Bernhard-William Kiser, got out of the other with a .357 revolver and began walking toward the trooper. The trooper took cover behind the patrol other and reportedly ordered Kiser to drop the weapon. Kiser did not follow the trooper's instructions, and the trooper then shot three times, killing Kiser.
This record exists so that Joseph Bernhard-William Kiser, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
