At Rest

Deadly force
Officers were called to Clark Court, near St. Charles High School, for a domestic disturbance. Neighbors said Martin G. Brown was threatening them and igniting fireworks. Officers encountered Brown who was armed with a knife and a handgun and failed to comply with officers' instructions to disarm. As Brown advanced, one of the officers tasered him, to no effect. Brown continued to advance and one officer shot and killed him.
This record exists so that Martin G. Brown, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
