âThey (police) could have done a million other ways than to kill the man,â said Paul Tesh, whom Castillo struck on the head with a hammer during the standoff. âIf they (police) were trained, Joey would still be alive. They didnât have to kill the man.
âThey could have disarmed him. Throw the cuffs on him, and it would have been done.â
Tesh said that Castilllo struck him once in the face with the hammer, and not several times as police said in a statement. It will take about six months for Tesh to recover from his injuries, he said.

The news release also provided more details about the chaotic scene of gunfire and a housefire in the typically quiet neighborhood near Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.
Castillo was involved with a struggle with an officer as the incident began at 1:22 p.m., police said. Officers had earlier received a report of unknown trouble at the house at 526 Lockland Ave.
When police Sgt. Robert Fenimore arrived at the house, he saw a person who appeared to be unconscious lying in the doorway of the home. That person was later identified as Castillo.
Fenimore called emergency medical technicians to treat Castillo, police said. Before the EMTs arrived, Fenimore removed a large knife from a hoister on Castilloâs belt. An empty handgun holster also was visible inside the waistline of Castilloâs jeans, police said.
