He survived California’s deadliest wildfire. But not his encounter with police

Stephen Vest was left homeless after the Camp fire destroyed Paradise. He died last year after a chaotic incident in which police shot at him 11 times

Through the overhead lights from his car, the security guard saw that Stephen Vest was injured. The dark-haired 30-year-old's left arm appeared to be bleeding as he walked out of the park just before 8pm on a warm night last October.

What's wrong? What happened? What can I do to help?" the guard asked Vest from his car.
