Cause of Death
According to NBC Bay AreaHall shot and killed 32-year-old Tyrell Wilson during a confrontation at the southwest corner of the Sycamore Valley Road overpass of Interstate Highway 680.
Deputies were dispatched to the area after receiving a 911 call for someone throwing rocks from the overpass onto Interstate 680. The sheriff’s office said Hall made contact with Wilson, who matched the description the 911 caller gave of the person throwing rocks.
The Contra County Sheriff’s Office released four videos of the shooting. One video was taken by Hall’s bodycam, another was taken from a bystander’s vehicle, and the two other videos were taken by stationary city surveillance cameras.
Shooting Video
The video shows Wilson walking through the intersection and Hall telling Wilson to stop and talk to him. Wilson says “no” before stopping and asking Hall who he is. Wilson tells Hall not to touch him, and the officer shouts at him twice to “drop the knife” while drawing his gun and pointing it at Hall.
“Kill me,” Wilson says before Hall fires the gun, and Wilson drops to the pavement.
With a shaky voice, Hall says “shots fired” on his radio. Early in the encounter, he had called for backup. “Suspect down,” Hall says, and calls for medical aid for Wilson.
“Why’d you shoot him, man?” a bystander shouts in the background. “Hey! Why’d you shoot him?”

The news outlet reported Arboleda was attempting to drive his vehicle between two police vehicles when Hall shot him nine times during a “slow-speed police chase.”
