Angilo Freeland

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Classic case of WP:ONEEVENT. Freeland was a non-notable person who committed murder and was killed by the police. Yes, there was news coverage at the time, but simply being in the news doesn't make him notable. There is a lack of significant coverage by reliable third party sources that isn't related to this one event. The pro forma "investigation by the Dept of Justice" that someone will likely try to claim gives this notability is not notable. The investigation found no wrong-doing. Freeland fails WP:PERP as well. Niteshift36 (talk) 03:56, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed - delete per ONEEVENT. Guettarda (talk) 15:49, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per ONEEVENT. However, the incident itself was quite notable locally (Central Florida) and had a fair amount of national attention for a couple days. This page is linked from Contagious shooting and the incident is a great example. I had previously considered creating an article for the shooting of the police and then the search/shooting of Angilo Freeland. If such an article is created in the future, this page would be an appropriate redirect. AHeneen (talk) 19:43, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm familiar with the case and actually not so convinced this is a good example of contagious fire. But that's a debate for another place. Niteshift36 (talk) 04:14, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
