How they died
Deadly force
Deputy Douglas Egbert followed a truck that had been driving erratically to the driveway of a house. Vasquez tried to step out of the truck. Deputy Egbert, in English, told Vasquez, who spoke Spanish, to stay in the other. Vasquez left the other, then stabbed the deputy twice in the chest with a knife, failing to penetrate his bulletproof vest. The deputy shot Vasquez once, killing him.
