Gregory Stough

How they died

Deadly force

Northern York County Regional Police officers initially were checking out a suspicious car in the parking lot of Stillmeadow Church of the Nazarene. An officer made contact with Gregory Stough in his Pontiac Bonneville around 3:21 a.m. The officer discovered Stough was wanted on four traffic warrants related to car inspections. Stough also had a suspended driver's license, police said. Stough resisted arrest, and during the struggle, he allegedly put his car in reverse with the driver's door still open. He accelerated backwards, trapping a second officer between the door and the car. The first officer shot and killed him.
