A letter Harden’s family sent to Fall River officials today questions the credibility of the police narrative of the shooting, calling attention to the “extremely suspicious” location of a steak knife Harden allegedly used to try to stab a police officer.
In November 2021, two Fall River police officers entered an apartment to arrest a man whose girlfriend reported him for physical abuse. Within two minutes of their arrival, Anthony Harden lay dying of gunshot wounds on his bedroom floor.“Initial information indicates that a knife was present at the scene of the altercation,” said Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn, who led an investigation that eventually cleared the officers of wrongdoing.
Representatives from the Fall River Police Department, the mayor’s office and the district attorney’s office all declined to comment on the allegations laid out in the letter. But two paramedics who transported Harden to the hospital did not recall seeing the knife, according to documents released by the district attorney’s office.
