Friends of Bones (FOB) www.friendsofBones.org In the early morning hours of April 18th, 2011, a 911 call was placed reporting a 'cutting' in the Northside neighborhood of Cincinnati.

David Paul Hebert, affectionately known as 'Bones', was named as a suspect. Soon after the 911 call was placed, David and a companion were apprehended by police. Officers at the scene reported that David denied having a weapon. According to police statements, David removed a switchblade from his pocket and lunged at officers, prompting Sgt. Andrew Mitchell to fire two rounds into his chest less than 60 seconds on the scene and when no other officers on scene had drawn their weapons. David was pronounced dead at the scene. Cruiser Cam video released by the Cincinnati Police Department shows that his beloved dog was with him when he was killed, and there was no immediate attempt by city personnel to revive him. The switchblade, which was reportedly used to lunge at police officers, was found 25 feet away from David’s body.
