At Rest

Less-than-lethal force
Starr was arrested after he was spotted, with another man, in a stolen white van used in the robbery of a convenience store. As two deputies tried to take them into custody they rammed the patrol car with the van, then fled on foot. Starr was tasered--police declined to say how many times--experienced "physical distress", fell face first, and evidently died at the scene.
This record exists so that Howard Starr, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
