How they died
Deadly force
Thomas, who had a blood-alcohol content of .26, stepped out of the wreckage of his second car crash in one evening, and left on foot. Officers Robert Martinez and Larry Norman pursued him. Around sunset, Thomas approached the officers. The officers fatally shot him. Though Thomas was unarmed, officers said that he claimed to have a gun. The officers were not indicted criminally, but Thomas's family received a $183,000 settlement in civil court.
