How they died
Deadly force
Two officers shot Nancy Van Raes when she allegedly pointed a gun at them. According to police, the officers responded to a call for help at Van Raes' apartment around 11:30 p.m., and were "confronted by an agitated" Van Raes, who had a handgun. The officers backed out of the apartment and into a stairwell. Van Raes allegedly continued pointing the gun at the officers, who opened fire, killing her.
