How they died
Deadly force
A retired colonel in the Afghan army, also diagnosed as schizophrenic and clinically depressed, Mujtaba had an argument with a neighbor that developed into a police response, then a Tasering to no effect, then police warning him to stop being so aggressive. Reportedly at one point, he was speaking gibberish. He was fatally shot in the chest.
