How they died
Deadly force
Ceaser Joe Mendoza was a passenger in a car that was stopped by deputies for running a stop sign, and Mendoza told his car-mate that he had to run because he had a gun on his person. Upon fleeing, he fell, and the deputy said that he saw Mendoza reach for a gun in his waistband. The deputy fired as Mendoza fled. Mendoza allegedly reached for his waistband again. The deputy took cover behind a concrete wall and fired at Mendoza again, killing him.
