96th Street and South Central Avenue Los Angeles CA 90002 Los Angeles
Cause of Death
Deadly force
Six county deputies fired about 70 rounds into the car occupied by Williams after he'd lead them on a chase. An attempted traffic stop at 11 p.m. for erratic driving didn't appeal to Williams, who then fled at high speed through alleys and caused dramatic collisions with cruisers. When finally cornered neighbors reported that the shooting took a full half-minute and happened at close range to the other. This case is cited as an example of "contagious shooting".
