At Rest

Deadly force
A standoff began about 4 p.m. after DeKalb police got a call about a man "aggressively wielding a knife in a neighborhood. They found Williams standing outside, and he allegedly lunged at officers with the knife, and an officer shot at him. He allegedly lunged again, and an officer shot and killed him.
This record exists so that Matthew Zadok Williams, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
