How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Officer Randy Lorenzetti responded around 10 a.m., after Donald Murray allegedly broke into the home of an elderly woman and attacked her. According to police, Murray struggled with Lorenzetti and three bystanders. Sergeant Stephen Bird, officer Bryan Mytych, and Lt. Christopher Benson arrived and told the bystanders to move aside. Bird kneeled on Murray as the other three officers tried to restrain Murray. Bird punched Murray, then tasered him when he allegedly kept resisting. Murray reportedly began having trouble breathing as he was brought to the patrol car. He was pronounced dead on arrival.
