Miles took a hostage while fleeing from the police in a shopping mall parking lot. He chose a woman loading her car, and for the next two and a half hours they sat side-by-side in her back seat, him pointing a gun at her stomach while they shared soft drinks and cigarettes provided by police negotiators. SWAT shooters eventually fatally shot him in the head, slightly wounding the hostage.
