MEMORANDUM
Appellant Veronica Duran Martinez challenges the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of Appellees on her 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claims. Martinez
We hold that the district court properly granted summary judgment, as the officer’s use of deadly force was “objectively reasonable in light of the facts and circumstances confronting the officer[ ] from the perspective of a reasonable officer on the scene____” Long v.

Haugen, 543 U.S. 194, 198-201, 125 S.Ct. 596, 160 L.Ed.2d 583 (2004) (affording qualified immunity to police officers in a similar circumstance).
AFFIRMED.
