How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Police had trouble controlling the 350-lb Stephens while trying to take him in on mental health grounds. He kicked out the back of an ambulance to escape en route on U.S. 90, then darted dangerously in front of cars on the highway. Police tasered him at least twice, then physically struggled with him before he had a medical emergency and died.
