How they died
Deadly force
A witness said Charles Saganek was walking east on Main Street as a state trooper and a Family Independence Agency employee followed in a police cruiser. Police said Saganek was being investigated for sexually assaulting a child, and that the FIA worker was there because the case involved a minor. The trooper positioned his cruiser in front of Saganek and told him to stop. The trooper shot and killed Saganek when he allegedly pulled a .25-caliber handgun from his jacket.
