How they died
Deadly force
City police received a 3:30 a.m. report of a man holding his granddaughter hostage. Cosby had barricaded himself into his residence with the 4-year-old and a machete. After an hour and a half of fruitless negotiations officers stormed him, fatally shot him, with the child unhurt.
