How they died

Deadly force

David Bamber had multiple felony warrants out for his arrest in California and was the suspect in kidnappings in Pleasanton and Nevada. He was shot and killed during a high-speed police chase in Idaho. Officers pursued Bamber through many counties in a chase in which Bamber carjacked a truck and drove multiple times at high speeds against traffic on the interstate. When officers thought Bamber was stuck in a ditch and approached on foot, Bamber allegedly broke free from the ditch, and they shot and killed him.
