How they died

Pursuit

Deputy Brendan Barckley tried to pull over Louis Marsh after noticing his brake light was not working properly. Marsh fled and a person inside the car allegedly threw "something" out the window that made a clicking sound, Barckley said, adding he thought at the time it could be a gun. A gun was reportedly found later. Marsh ran a red light on the Richmond Parkway and then collided with a tractor trailer, crushing much of his car and suffering fatal injuries. A coroner's inquest found that Marsh died in an accident and found no fault with the police pursuit.
