Jacob Mohow

How they died

Deadly force

Just before 11:30 p.m., Oklahoma City police responded to a disturbance call at a gas station. The man had a knife and a lighter and was attempting to cut the hoses at the gas pumps and acting like he was going to cut his own throat. When officers arrived, they found Jacob Mohow, with a screwdriver and knife. Officer Jared Tipton used a bean bag shotgun, and Officer Grant Wheeler used his Taser in attempts to incapacitate Mohow. He allegedly charged at officers, and Sgt. Donald Koger shot and killed him.
