At Rest

Less-than-lethal force
Officers performed a traffic stop on Wheat's other. Wheat tried to swallow a bag full of drugs to conceal it. Officers Darryl Wertz and Jeffery Vanover struggled with Wheat for the bag. Wheat died. The little available information said that a grand jury was presented with multiple theories as to whether neck compressions or methamphetamine use were most to blame for Wheat's death.
This record exists so that Carl Glenn Wheat, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
