How they died
Deadly force
Around 11:30 a.m., a 911 call reported a man yelling, agitated and perhaps on drugs in the area. Police officers encountered the man who spoke Spanish and appeared to be mentally distressed, and attempted to talk him down.But after 20 minutes, the man set down his backpack and pulled a 12-inch long knife. Officers reportedly began to back away and continued to try to calm the man. The man allegedly reached back into the backpack and pulled out a handgun. He raised the gun toward the officers, who simultaneously fired live rounds and less-lethal bean bag rounds, killing him.
