At Rest

Deadly force
According to DPD, officers tried to arrest Mendoza "for possession of illegal narcotics." Mendoza fled, then fought officers, taking a stun gun from one of them. Officers Otoniel Boudet, Jason Crow and Timothy Payovich shot at Mendoza 15 times, hitting him six times. He was pronounced dead at Parkland Hospital.
This record exists so that Miguel Alvarado Mendoza, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
