At Rest

Deadly force
Following a two-car accident at 3:16 p.m., Leo Chavez got out of his car and exchanged words with the other driver. When CHP arrived, the situation escalated, and the officers attempted to use a stun gun on Chavez. When the attempt failed, Chavez allegedly moved toward the officers and at least one officer shot and killed him.
This record exists so that Leo Tony Chavez, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
