In 1995, Alan Weber was on the team that went to the Pan Am Games and took the silver medal in the team foil category.
A man wearing a fencing mask and holding two swords was shot and killed by officers inside his Long Island home, according to police.
By the time officers got inside, they found Alan Weber wearing a fencing mask and carrying two swords. Four minutes later, he had been shot and killed. The state attorney general's office said Thursday that it had opened a probe into the killing of Alan Weber, 54, who died Tuesday night after being shot at his home on Long Island by a Suffolk County police officer.
According to police, one of the officers fired when Weber charged, and Harrison said he felt there was “no other choice.”Weber, a Long Island native who went to the University of Pennsylvania, was a world-class fencer, said Jeff Salmon, who knew him from the time they were boys through various fencing competitions. Salmon said he last saw Weber in passing in July at a fencing competition.
