How they died
Deadly force
Perea had killed his girlfriend as she worked at a nursing facility in University Place, police said. Police soon spotted him and chased his other southbound on I-5 as he shot at them. He headed north on I-5, at which point the pursuing officers forced his car to spin out near an exit for Tillicum. He took cover behind his other and engaged police in a shootout. Twelve officers from three agencies--Lakewood and Steilacoom police, as well as the sheriff's department--shot back, killing him.
