A bystander is seen, grabbing him by the neck and stomach, and one of two armed security guards working for Apex Tactical Security started an altercation for unknown reasons. One of the officers pulled out a weapon and shot and killed Colen. The officer was apparently upset because during the altercation that security themselves started, one of the officers hit their head against the glass door. After that, when Colen was already detained, the guard pulled out a gun and deliberately shot and killed him. After gravely injuring Colen, the guard apparently did not help him, but instead helped another bystander look for a lost ring. The friends of Colen put him in the vehicle and drove him to the hospital themselves as security was of no help.Colon had been unarmed and was attacked by security leading to his death. He was the father of three little girls and was well loved by a very large family.
