Police responded to a call from a woman who'd sighted her former boyfriend and neighbor on the grounds of her rental property, contrary to an order of protection. That boyfriend was Wimbush, a 300-pound former convict, whose physical struggle with the officer included throwing him onto a glass table, which shattered, and stabbing him in the shoulder. The officer fired on Wimbush once, killing him.
