Three local officers responding to a 4:30 p.m. "man with a gun" call found Rivera, who tried to leave the scene. According to the police narrative one of them caught Rivera's shirttail, and he went to pull a weapon. The three shot 14 times, striking the victim "at least" twice. Police later arrested Rivera's grieving sister as she tried to set up a memorial.
