Police officer charged with voluntary manslaughter for shooting, killing unarmed man in 2018
For the first time in memorable history, the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office filed charges against a police officer for killing someone while on duty. The same officer was also involved in the fatal shooting of a homeless man in Danville last month.

After two and a half years of review, Contra Costa County District Attorney Diane Becton announced on Wednesday she would be charging Danville Police Officer Andrew Hall with voluntary manslaughter and assault for the death of 33-year-old Laudemere Arboleda.
