They said the man just picked up wrapped in a scarf object from the ground, not knowing what a gun is. Then the weapon accidentally went off in his hands and a stray bullet hit Stanl in the back.
Zarate then threw the gun into the water and started to walk away. On the question of the detectives why he did it, Zarate replied: «If I did, he would have continued to shoot.»

In 2017, the jury recognized Zarate, who is an illegal immigrant from Mexico, is not guilty of manslaughter and assault with a firearm. Even then the decision aroused a storm of criticism from conservative experts and President of the trump.
