How they died
Deadly force
A multi-agency federal fugitive task force went after Yilpre at his apartment building at 4 a.m. After some negotiation and some taserings, neither effective, federal agents believed they saw Vilpre handle and point a weapon at them. They opened fire and killed him. The object in his hand had been a shoe.
