Description

This is a § 1983 action for the use of deadly force arising out of the fatal shooting by police of a schizophrenic who, seconds before being shot, attacked a police officer with a butcher knife. The Plaintiffs-Appellants in this case, Romeo and Corazon Untalan, are the parents of the decedent Ronnie Untalan. They seek to vindicate Ronnies Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment right not to be killed by the police. They are suing Lorain police officer Joseph Kopronica, who shot Ronnie, and the City of Lorain, for its alleged failure to appropriately train its officers. The Untalans appeal the district courts grant of summary judgment in favor of Officer Kopronica on grounds of qualified immunity. Likewise, they appeal the dismissal of their suit against the City. The district court threw out the suit against the City because Officer Kopronica was found not to have violated the decedents constitutional rights. We affirm the district courts judgment because no rational juror could find that Officer Kopronica violated the decedents constitutional rights.
