Deputy U.S. Marshals attempted to arrest Transcini Richerson, who was wanted on a state parole violation and a felony charge of assault-strangulation, in his vehicle. Richerson refused to show his hands, and appeared to be reaching downwards. One of the deputy marshals opened fire, shooting Richerson in the torso; he died at Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center. A Grand Jury cleared the deputy in August 2013.
