How they died
Deadly force
Agents fired on and killed unarmed suspect Arambula when he attempted to escape from a traffic stop on suspicion of distributing marijuana. After a 15-mile car chase and a foot chase through a pecan grove, the officer fired nine times and struck Arambula once behind the left ear. Stated justification: victim gestured as if he had a gun and the officer felt threatened. County officials refused to press charges.
