How they died
Deadly force
Bui cut or scratched a 15-year-old girl in his home for making too much noise, and the family called police to get medical help for Bui. Officers arrived and were told Bui was mentally ill. Bui was ordered to come out of a bathroom and was holding a small knife or scalpel at his side. Officers claim he brandished it, but witnesses disagree. He was shot and killed. The family filed a lawsuit, the result of which is subject to a 2/11/13 confidentiality agreement.
