At Rest

Deadly force
Deputies responded at around 9:45 a.m. to 911 calls reporting a man, Verdone, behaving erratically and running in and out of traffic near the Marathon Gas station. Verdone yelled at people near the locked entrance to the convenience store, which he also tried to enter before the deputy's arrival. Verdone approached the deputy as he was exiting his cruiser. Verdone advanced with a knife, and the deputy shot and killed him.
This record exists so that Steven Verdone, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
