How they died
Deadly force
Christopher was with two others in a car. Pueblo police officers attempted to pull them over after reports of gunshots in the area. They did not pull over to the side of the road, but then crashed the car. All three fled on foot. Christopher shot at the officers after getting out of the car, and struck one of them in the shoulder. They found his about an hour later and he did not cooperate with the officers. Police said Tavares was shot and killed after he refused to listen to a detective's commands and tried to flee.
