How they died
Deadly force
After Mitchell was pulled over for a traffic stop, he drove away with a police officer standing on the running board of his truck. He rammed parked cars in an attempt to dislodge the officer, but then pulled over, after which he was shot and killed. Stating that he had put up his hands in surrender, the city was sued and paid out $1.25 million dollars. The shooting was found to be "In Policy".
