Mark Richard Coleman

Deadly force

Around 12:40 a.m., police received a 911 call saying the caller had heard loud noises, screaming and possible gunshots at the Palm & Pines Mobile & RV Park. The first deputy arrived within four minutes and was directed to the common area of the trailer park. There, the deputy made contact with Mark Richard Coleman, who was on top of his wife, who was screaming. The deputy ordered Coleman get off of her, but Coleman did not. Coleman allegedly threatened various people with a handgun, and when a female bystander leapt on his back, Coleman threw her off and pointed the handgun at the deputy, who shot and killed him.
