How they died
Less-than-lethal force
James McBride left the hospital without being discharged on September 29. When two security guards, special Metropolitan Police Department officers Clifton Montgomery, 30, and Charles Brown, 43, encountered him, McBride did not comply with unspecified orders, and a fight began. The two officers and a third subdued him. McBride died two days later. D.C.'s Chief Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide from "blunt force injuries of the neck, with cervical spinal cord transection and vertebral artery compression." The officers were found not guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death.
