在紐澤西州，警官 Robert Reynolds 開槍擊中了 Donald Gardner。這發生在警方搜查期間。另外兩名警員也受傷了。警方並未透露 Gardner 先生是否持有武器。

Mr. Gardner's family is sad. They say he was already hurt from a police fight in 2013. The city leaders will not talk about the case now. They are waiting for the state report.

Police departments in Connecticut and New Jersey are currently dealing with the legal and investigative results of two separate incidents where civilians died during police operations.

康乃狄克州與紐澤西州的警局目前正在處理兩起獨立事件的法律與調查結果，這兩起事件均為平民在警方行動期間死亡。

In Hartford, Connecticut, former officer Joseph Magnano appeared in court to face a manslaughter charge after the death of Steven Jones on February 27. The incident happened during a mental health crisis where Jones, who had a knife, was shot nine times. The police union president, James Rutkauski, asserted that the officer followed his training to keep people safe. However, the state's findings are different. Inspector General Eliot Prescott concluded that Magnano did not use non-lethal options and that Jones was not an immediate threat. Consequently, this has caused a conflict between police supporters and civil rights lawyers, such as Ben Crump, who criticized the city's crisis response methods.

在康乃狄克州的哈特福德，前警員 Joseph Magnano 因 2 月 27 日 Steven Jones 的死亡而於法庭面對過失致死指控。該事件發生在一次心理健康危機期間，當時持有刀子的 Jones 被開槍擊中九次。警察工會主席 James Rutkauski 堅稱該名警員遵循訓練以確保民眾安全。然而，州政府的調查結果則有所不同。總督察 Eliot Prescott 結論指出 Magnano 未採取非致命選項，且 Jones 並非立即威脅。因此，這引起了警方支持者與民權律師（如 Ben Crump）之間的衝突，後者批評了該市處理危機的方法。

At the same time, the New Jersey Attorney General's Office is carrying out a required investigation into a June 2 shooting in Atlantic City. While serving a search warrant, Officer Robert Reynolds fired his weapon, killing 52-year-old Donald Gardner and injuring two other officers, including a SWAT sergeant. The exact details of the shooting are still unclear, as officials have not confirmed if Gardner had a weapon. The family of the victim mentioned that Gardner had been paralyzed during a previous police encounter in 2013. Furthermore, city leaders have refused to give detailed comments, stating that legal rules prevent them from sharing information about search warrants.

與此同時，紐澤西州總檢察長辦公室正針對 6 月 2 日在大西洋城發生的開槍事件進行法定調查。在執行搜索票時，警員 Robert Reynolds 開槍，導致 52 歲的 Donald Gardner 死亡，並導致另外兩名警員受傷，其中包括一名特警 (SWAT) 中士。開槍的確切細節仍不明確，因為官員尚未確認 Gardner 是否持有武器。被害人家屬提到 Gardner 在 2013 年另一次與警方的衝突中導致癱瘓。此外，市領導層拒絕發表詳細評論，聲稱法律規定禁止分享關於搜索票的資訊。

Both states are now waiting for the final results of the investigations and court cases to decide if the use of force was legal.

兩州目前正等待調查與法庭案件的最終結果，以判定使用武力是否合法。

Law enforcement agencies in Connecticut and New Jersey are currently managing the legal and investigative aftermath of two separate incidents involving the deaths of civilians during police interventions.

康涅狄格州與紐澤西州的執法機關目前正在處理兩起不同事件的法律與調查後續，這兩起事件均涉及警察介入期間導致平民死亡。

In Hartford, Connecticut, former officer Joseph Magnano has appeared in Superior Court to address a manslaughter charge stemming from the February 27 fatality of Steven Jones. The incident occurred during a mental health crisis in which Jones, who possessed a knife, was shot nine times. While the defense, articulated by police union president James Rutkauski, posits that the officer acted in accordance with training to ensure safety, the state's findings diverge. Connecticut Inspector General Eliot Prescott concluded that Magnano failed to employ non-lethal alternatives and that the decedent did not constitute an imminent threat. This discrepancy has precipitated a polarization between institutional support from police personnel and criticisms from civil rights advocates, such as Ben Crump, regarding the adequacy of crisis intervention protocols.

在康涅狄格州的哈特福德，前警官 Joseph Magnano 已在高等法院出庭，處理關於 2 月 27 日 Steven Jones 死亡事件的過失致死指控。該事件發生在一次精神健康危機期間，當時持有小刀的 Jones 被擊中九次。警方工會主席 James Rutkauski 代表辯方主張，該警官是依照訓練採取行動以確保安全，但州政府的調查結果則截然不同。康涅狄格州督察長 Eliot Prescott 結論認為 Magnano 未能採取非致命的替代方案，且死者並不構成即時威脅。這一分歧導致了警方內部支持與民權倡導者（如 Ben Crump）之間的極端對立，後者質疑危機干預方案的適當性。

Concurrently, the New Jersey Attorney General's Office is conducting a mandatory inquiry into a June 2 shooting in Atlantic City. During the execution of a search warrant, Officer Robert Reynolds discharged his weapon, resulting in the death of 52-year-old Donald Gardner and injuries to two other officers, including one critical injury to a SWAT sergeant. The circumstances surrounding the discharge of gunfire remain opaque, as officials have not confirmed if Gardner was armed. The family of the deceased has highlighted Gardner's prior paralysis resulting from a 2013 police encounter, while municipal leadership has deferred all substantive commentary to the state's investigative body, citing legal restrictions on the public disclosure of search warrants.

與此同時，紐澤西州檢察總長辦公室正針對 6 月 2 日在大西洋城發生的槍擊事件進行強制性調查。在執行搜查令期間，警官 Robert Reynolds 開槍，導致 52 歲的 Donald Gardner 死亡，並造成另外兩名警官受傷，其中一名 SWAT 中尉傷勢嚴重。開槍的具體情況仍然不明確，因為官員尚未確認 Gardner 是否持有武器。死者家屬強調 Gardner 曾在 2013 年因與警察接觸而導致癱瘓，而市政府領導層則以搜查令公開受法律限制為由，將所有實質評論推遲至州調查機關。

Both jurisdictions are presently awaiting the resolution of formal investigations and judicial proceedings to determine the legality of the force employed.

兩個司法管轄區目前正等待正式調查與司法程序的結果，以判定所採取武力的合法性。
