Less-than-lethal force
Around 1 a.m., Boynton Beach police officers tried stopping a red Nissan Rogue, which took off. Omar Stevens was reportedly driving. About 20 minutes later, he was allegedly involved in a hit-and-run crash in West Palm Beach. Stevens allegedly ran a red light and collided with a car. Stevens got out of his car and ran north along Tamarind Avenue. Stevens tried to steal a cellphone from a man who was calling 911. Minutes later, West Palm Beach police officers found Stevens. He allegedly tried resisting officers, and those officers shocked him with a Taser, killing him.
