How they died

Deadly force

About 10 p.m. on Jan 28, two men allegedly carjacked a Ford Windstar minivan at a gas station near Puritan and Livernois. Police said one of the men fired a shot before taking off in the van. Officers stopped a van at around 1:30 a.m. to see if it was the one reported stolen. Two men got out, police said, and the passenger allegedly fired a Kalashnikov AK-47 at the officers, who returned fire. The driver was fatally struck during the shootout, though police said they weren't sure if he was hit by officers' bullets or the passenger's. The passenger reportedly ran away.
