How they died

Less-than-lethal force

Garrett Schmidt died three days after suffering a "medical emergency" while in custody following his bizarre break-in at a Grantland Court home and subsequent rampage through the neighborhood, according to police. Officers responded to more than a half-dozen 911 calls of a man apparently under the influence and forcing his way into homes used physical control holds, beanbag guns and a Taser to apprehend the Schmidt.
