Xavier Ferguson

Deadly force

Officer Collis Underwood shot and killed Xavier Ferguson, who allegedly lunged for Underwood's weapon. According to Underwood's account, he and three other officers were on patrol in the Mobile Strike Force, traveling in a two-car caravan, when they came upon Ferguson's van. The officers said the van started to pull away, and they saw someone throwing things out of the window. When the officers pulled the van over, the people inside reportedly jumped out and started running. Ferguson allegedly tackled Underwood and tried to take his gun, so Underwood shot him.
