Date of the incident: 6/17/2013

Salem, New London, CT
28 Witter Road

Firefighters and police arrived at Bergeson's home, which was burning. The driveway was blocked with vehicles, and it appeared the fire was deliberately set. Bergeson was in the woods behind the house acting irrationally, and he charged police with either a gun or a club, so they shot and killed him.
