How they died
Pursuit
Walter Levon McDaniel, 39, stole a car from a Fresno used car lot. He then picked up a woman and a 13-year-old boy as passengers. Police had McDaniel under surveillance for a previous arrest warrant, and a pursuit ensued, including the police helicopter. Police reports say McDaniel was going about 100 mph and had run six stop signs before crashing into Earnest Grant's car, killing 58-year-old Grant. McDaniel pled no contest to Grant's murder and a host of felonies and received a 37 years, eight months to life sentence. Grant's family received a $950,000 settlement from the used car lot.
