How they died
Deadly force
Sparks Police Officers Eli Maile and Brian Sullivan responded to reports of an assault. Rolando Brizuela allegedly stole a teenager's skateboard. The officers contacted Brizuela at his home, which was in the neighborhood of the incident. As officers were talking to him on the front porch, Brizuela reached under a couch cushion and pulled out a handgun. Both officers drew their weapons and commanded Brizuela to drop the gun. Brizuela racked the slide on the weapon and began pointing it at the officers. The officers shot and killed him.
