Deadly force
A trooper said he pulled Maw over because he and his passenger weren't wearing seatbelts. Sgt. Troy Burnett said he stopped to assist and recognized Maw as a white supremacist with a criminal history. He said he stayed to ensure the trooper's safety as he arrested Maw's passenger on an outstanding warrant. Burnett said he saw Maw move in the car and ordered him to get out for a pat-down. Instead Maw ran away. He allegedly raised his shirt, grabbed a gun and pointed it at Burnett. Burnett fired four times, knocking Maw to the ground. When Maw allegedly kept holding the gun raised, Burnett fired twice more and and Officer Aaron Hawes fired once.
This record exists so that William Glen Maw, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
