At Rest

Deadly force
Ehlers was a suspect in the burglary of an electronic store, and somebody called in to report him on the roof of a one-story duplex. Although unarmed, some action of his seemed threatening to a local officer, who shot him to death. Ehlers' father settled a federal civil rights suit with the city for $150K.
This record exists so that Gregory Ehlers Jr., and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
