A federal jury in San Antonio has awarded more than $10 million to the family a man who was fatally shot by two deputies in 2015 while he had his arms raised.
According to testimony, Flores' mother called 911 to report that her son had assaulted his wife and infant child. On the call, Flores can be heard saying he was going to die by “suicide by cop.”
An attorney for Flores' family, Robert Wilson, told jurors that the deputies were not in danger when they opened fire on Flores.But attorneys representing the officers argued that Flores remained a threat because he refused to drop the knife.
