At Rest

Deadly force
Police responded to a residence to serve outstanding felony arrest warrants on George Crenshaw. When officers arrived, Crenshaw ran out of the house into the woods. Crenshaw later returned to the home, as did police. Crenshaw allegedly came at them with an 8-to-10-inch knife in a kitchen. Police told him to drop the knife. When Crenshaw continued to advance toward the officers, they reportedly tried to incapacitate him with a stun gun then shot and killed him.
This record exists so that George Crenshaw, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
