How they died

Deadly force

Local and county officers pursued Chrisman when he failed to pull over for a traffic stop, which triggered a high-speed chase. When he finally crashed into a pole, officers emerged from their cars and Chrisman reportedly backed into them. The officers shot and killed him. Disputing the police account of events, the family settled with the town in May 2012 for $400,000.
