Date of the incident: 8/30/2014

Garza pulled a pellet gun, a replica of a semiautomatic weapon, on officers at a truck stop at 2 a.m. Six officers killed him with over 80 rounds. Garza had a history of schizophrenia. His grandmother was forced to change burial plans because the 80 shots had essentially removed his face.
