Edward Negrete – Grandpa's Sorrowful Death 12/13

Summary: 73 year old grandfather, Francisco Cerna, was shot and killed by police in California during a late night walk. Police were told by a call about a man with a revolver and soon after Serna was killed. Family claim the reason why their father was out was because he'd suffered from early stages of dementia.Also, officers never found a gun on the grandfather and cause of death was unreasonable.  
Analysis: This grandfather's death was a miserable in the fact that he was innocent. This  tragedy can relate to many more that have happened due to police officers taking safety precautions.  Cases like this cause riots on the streets and the degraded value of a police officer. This could've been avoided on the long run but you never know who or what's going to happen.

  1. This is horrible. A man has dementia and someone thinks he's a criminal so they take his life? People really need to stop making such quick decisions without being sure.
