At Rest

Deadly force
A local officer and state trooper pursued a group of young men on bicycles near a school. On their approach, Lee either abandoned or was knocked off his bicycle (accounts vary) and fled on foot. Claiming to see a handgun, the local officer chased Lee around the school and fatally shot him a total of nine times. The case is controversial. School video showed no gun in Lee's hand, and the gun recovered at the scene, a Baikal .380, was shown to be planted.
This record exists so that Fong Lee, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
