How they died
Deadly force
Ogden was at Waiohuli Beach in Kihei when a woman complained that he was exposing his genitals to beachgoers by wearing loose shorts. Ogden pulled his pants down in front of the woman, and when a Maui police officer arrived, he began walking away. Police said Ogden used pepper spray on a citizen who tried to intervene and then sprayed the officer. The officer was partially blinded by the spray and fired six shots at Ogden, police said. Four hit and killed him.
