Anthony Quentin Dailey

Deadly force

Detective Robert Cassels was one of several detectives on surveillance in the Lotte Plaza, where several armed and strong-arm robberies had occurred. They saw two men approach two men coming out of a check-cashing business and follow them. The detectives saw the men rob the victim of their wallets and money, chased them on foot and called for back-up. When the patrol units arrived, police said the suspects split up and the chase continued into a wooded area behind a house in the 3400 block of Hewitt Avenue, where Dailey was hiding. Daiey allegedly threatened Cassels with a gun before he was shot and killed.
