How they died
Deadly force
Around 8 a.m., a Green Forest police officer was dispatched to an apartment. Three roommates of Maung Tway reported that Tway was creating a disturbance and asked police to remove him from the apartment. As a police officer asked Tway to step-out of his bedroom, Tway opened the door wielding a large knife. The officer ordered Tway to drop the knife, but Tway continued to approach the police officer brandishing the knife. The officer shot and killed Tway.
