SEATTLE -- A mother is now haunted by a phone call with her son in where she heard the gun shots that took his life.
Antoinette Cisneros was on the phone with her son Santiago when a shootout started with police at a Portland parking garage.
"I was there," she said. "I heard my son being killed."
Last Monday, two police officers in northeast Portland said they came upon 32-year-old Santiago Cisneros, who was armed with a shotgun, on the top of a parking garage.
His mom says he sounded calm on the line, but didn't make sense.
"He said to me, 'Mom, they're forcing me to go higher. They're forcing me to go higher,' " Antoinette Cisneros said.
Investigators say Santiago Cisneros got out of his car with a shotgun and fired on officers. His mom could still hear him talking on the open phone line.
