How they died
Deadly force
Snowden was aggressively harassed by a gang of white men in a video store, and held them at bay with a handgun. When police arrived and found Snowden holding the gun, he was quickly shot four times, fatally, without any chance to explain. Street protests and prolonged legal battles followed. His family ultimately settled with the city for a $70K wrongful death suit. (First name widely reported as "Edward".)
