How they died
Deadly force
Craig Spitz fled the shooting of a former co-worker at the Inn at the Springs in Bonita Springs where he had been fired in 2008. Hours later, a deputy spotted him driving. Spitz fled, and deputies forced his car off the road and into a ditch. Spitz pulled out a revolver and reportedly pointed it at the deputies. Deputies Rush Brewton, John Gordon, Bradley Weich and Jarrod Heyse shot and killed him. Spitz had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but it's not clear whether the deputies were aware of it.
