Antonio Salazar aka Michelle Salazar

Less-than-lethal force

Salazar broke into a hotel room and destroyed the interior. Officers arrested Salazar, who resisted vigorously and later died of an unknown cause. Fatal Encounters apologizes for the occasional use of birth names for transgender people. Police and news media often report the birth names instead of the real names, so we have to have both in our name field to prevent duplications in the dataset. It's disrespectful, and we're sorry about the necessity.
