How they died

Deadly force

The Whitfield County Sheriff's Office asked for the Tunnel Hill PD's help in stopping a other driven by Kaleb M. Brown, 26. Deputies said they had information that Brown was distributing meth, was a felon in possession of a handgun, and had an active felony warrant for aggravated assault out of Tennessee. About 3 p.m., a a Tunnel Hill officer pursued 2002 Volkswagen Beetle driven by Brown south at a "recklessly high rate of speed." During the chase, Tunnel Hill officers unsuccessfully tried to knock the other off the road. Brown tried to pass several vehicles but struck four vehicles before hitting the back of a tractor-trailer. Brown and his passenger, 27-year-old Christy Lawing, were killed.
