## Known erroneous reports

This section includes deaths which were initially reported as police killings but later turned out not to be.
| Date | Name | State (City) | Initial reports | Later reports |
| 2011-01-23 | Martinez, Anthony | Washington (Port Orchard) | Shot after shooting at and wounding two deputies. The deputies were responding to report of suspicious man with a gun outside a store. Astrid Valdivia died from gunshot wound received in crossfire between deputies and Martinez. | All three deputies and Martinez were firing .40 caliber hollow-point rounds from Glock handguns, which led to confusion over who shot whom and multiple erroneous reports that a deputy had killed Martinez. Later forensics determined that Martinez killed Valdivia and then himself. |
