How they died

Deadly force

Deputy James Boyd on a routine traffic stop in Montague County was shot at by the driver, Evan Spencer Ebel, and struck twice in his chest and once in the ear. He was wearing a bulletproof vest and sustained minor injury. Ebel was seen again near Decatur on U.S. 287 traveling upwards of 100 mph, and fired out his window at the police officers, and state troopers following behind. Ebel collided with an 18-wheeler, then got out of the car and opened fire on officers, who fired back. Ebel was hit and taken to John Peter Smith Hospital, where, according to Wise County Sheriff David Walker, he is "legally deceased" awaiting organ harvesting. Ebel is suspected of killing Tom Clements, the executive director of the Colorado Department of Corrections, and pizza delivery man Nathan Leon. Ebel has been affiliated with the Nazi prison gang "211s," aka the Brotherhood of Aryan Alliance.
