How they died
Deadly force
Escalante and Carlos James Cipriano used a pellet gun to steal car keys from an AME pastor. Officers tracked Escalante and Cipriano, finding them parked in the pastor's Nissan and speaking to a bystander. The officers told the two men to surrender. Escalante put the other in reverse, nearly striking Officer Timothy Payovitch and Sergeant Roger Rudloff. They and a third officer shot at the other multiple times, killing Escalante and wounding Cipriano.
