At Rest

Deadly force
Officers responded about 4:30 a.m. to a "screaming woman radio call." According to police, a person came out and got into a fight with the man involved. The man went back inside the building, and people directed police to his apartment. When police knocked on the door, the man opened the door, naked, and he allegedly was armed with a knife. He dropped the knife and when he moved to pick it up again, he was shot and killed.
