How they died

Deadly force

Police shot Mohammad Khaled Alwadi after he allegedly fired at officers in downtown St. Louis. At about 10 p.m. police said Alwadi rammed his Dodge Intrepid into a marked police car parked on Pine Street at Memorial Drive. An officer inside the car was injured and radioed for help. Alwadi reportedly fired several shots, hitting the car, and the officer returned fire. A second officer arrived and Alwadi allegedly fired at him, then ran north on Memorial and fired three or four times at a third officer in a patrol car. Alwadi kept running north on Memorial and encountered several more officers, who shot and killed him. According to police, Alwadi's family told them he'd spoken of committing suicide.
