Phillip Todd Walker

How they died

Deadly force

Three deputies climbed aboard Walker's dry docked houseboat to serve a warrant for "misdemeanor terroristic threatening," assuring the older man that it was no big deal. Walker, sick with cancer, sitting on his bed, calmly explained that he'd been drinking. He pulled out a rifle in a case then a 30-caliber M1 Carbine. He killed two of the deputies and seriously wounded the third before being shot to death.
