Deputies responded to a call about a man armed with a knife and acting erratically. He had blood on his clothing, but it was not clear where it came from. The first officer struggled with the man, and at some point, a Taser reportedly was used. When two additional officers arrived, both shot at and killed the man.

The hash stored in the database is used as the identifier for this report, and can be seen in the URL. The hash from the Mainchain Tx is the hash sent to and stored on Mainchain. Finally, the "generated hash" is generated each time this page is loaded, using the same data used for the hash submitted to Mainchain.
