How they died

Deadly force

Around 4 a.m., officers responded to a shooting. The victim told officers that two men stole his sport utility other and that one of the men shot him in the leg. Officers found the stolen other and followed it until it parked in a driveway on a dead-end street, police said. Three people in the stolen other fled on foot as officers approached. A man and a woman were taken into custody, but Luke Swann went out of sight, police said. Officers Brian Buck, Brian Minnehan and Ryan Steinkamp found Swann hiding near a garage and told them to show his hands. Swann allegedly shot a handgun at the officers, and they shot and killed him.
