Christopher Ray Oliver

Deadly force

Off-duty LAPD officer Steven Ulrich went to investigate a disturbance outside his home and saw Oliver in a truck crashing into parked cars. He followed a short distance on foot and ordered Oliver from the damaged other. Oliver did not exit and Ulrich, who feared he would be run over, shot and killed Oliver. While Ulrich was not discipled, Los Angeles paid $1.4 million to Oliver's son in a civil suit.
