What happened
The national Fatal Force record identifies Fednel Rhinvil as a victim of an on-duty police shooting in Salisbury, Maryland on March 3, 2015. That record provides the incident's date and locality but does not independently determine the necessity or proportionality of deadly force. Searches undertaken during this pass did not establish a sufficiently reliable independent narrative detailing the initial police call, the actions immediately before the shooting or testimony from relatives and eyewitnesses. The incident merits further review of Salisbury Police Department and Wicomico County records, contemporaneous local television reporting and any State's Attorney determination. In the meantime, this entry avoids presenting an unknown sequence as fact.
