How they died
Deadly force
Two officers responded to a report of a man breaking into a car on Lee Avenue. When they attempted to question the suspect, Craig Bickerstaff, 27, he ran. The officers caught him and struggled with the 318-pound Bickerstaff, and hit him on the head with a baton. When Bickerstaff --" the son of a former Cleveland police officer --" pulled out a gun, the officers shot and killed him.
