Deadly force

Officers responded to an apartment complex around 10:30 p.m. in response to reports of shots fired. When they arrived, officers spotted Dillon, who reportedly matched the description of a person involved in a pistol whipping earlier that night. As officers arrived, Dillon, who was allegedly armed, ran inside one of the apartments. Officers approached the residence, and a gun-battle began. Officer Samuel Galluzzi was wounded. Dillon was shot and killed. Three supervisors were disciplined over the incident.
