How they died
Deadly force
A woman called 911 just after 1 p.m. and said her husband was threatening her with a gun. She called again 10 minutes later to say she'd escaped, but that her 4-year-old child remained inside. As police approached the apartment, 8-10 shots were reportedly fired, and OPD officer Alfred Orsi and DCSD deputy Guy Williamson returned fire. Police said two officers were injured--officer Juan Fortier sustained a leg injury from metal shrapnel from a nearby car and officer Dave Preston sustained cuts to his face when a car window was shot out. The child was physically unharmed.
