How they died
Deadly force
Gary McCarty reportedly robbed Passport Pizza at around midnight, then led officers David Gatz, Bryan Gilbert, Nicholas Dykas, Michael Friese, and Jeff St. Germaine, and deputy Philip Abdoo on a high-speed chase through Clinton Township and into Mount Clemens. McCarty pulled his PT Cruiser into the Mt. Clemens Farmers Market parking lot and got out. Five officers shot McCarty 18 times when he allegedly aimed a WinGun CO 2 BB gun at them. Some witnesses disputed the police account and said they saw no aggressive movements on McCarty's part and that the officers shot him several times after he'd fallen to the ground.
