Four Florida Police Officers Indicted For Manslaughter In Shootout

Kosovo special police forces escort to court the gunmen arrested after the Kosovo shootout, in Pristina

Four Florida police officers have been indicted for manslaughter in connection with the deaths of a UPS driver and a passerby during a 2019 shootout with suspects who hijacked the UPS driver. The grand jury indicted Miami-Dade County officer Rodolfo Mirabal, 39, on two counts of manslaughter with a firearm in connection with the deaths of UPS driver Frank Ordonez, 27, and Richard Cutshaw, 70, who was driving nearby.

Officers Jose Mateo, Richard Santiesteban, and Leslie Lee were also indicted for manslaughter with a firearm for Ordonez's death. Mirabal and Mateo still work for Miami-Dade police, while Lee retired three years ago and Santiesteban was terminated. None of the officers were charged in the deaths of the hijackers Lamar Alexander and Ronnie Jerome Hill.
