How they died
Less-than-lethal force
In the middle of the night, an irrational Russell shot his own 26-year-old granddaughter in the shoulder, seriously wounding her. Police arrived and entered the house to remove four young children but Russell refused to leave and began an armed standoff. The house caught fire after tear gas canisters were shot in. He was found inside, dead of smoke inhalation.
