Robbin W. Gastineau

Deadly force

Deputy Tom Courter responded to a hang-up 911 call in rural Hershey at about 1:45 a.m., and heard a woman screaming inside the mobile home, police said. Courter kicked in the door and found Robbin W. Gastineau and his ex-wife fighting. Courter Tased Gastineau, but the probes reportedly landed too close together, so Courter tried again, but it was ineffective. Gastineau allegedly grabbed a decorative Samurai sword and attacked Courter, who shot Gastineau twice. Gastineau died at the scene.
