How they died
Deadly force
Markieth Singleton was one of four men in a Mercedes SUV that was pulled over because it allegedly matched the description of a other used in a robbery, police said. It turned out not to be the car used in the robbery. Police said Singleton brandished a gun and was shot and killed by Police Officer Joseph Cossolini when he refused orders to stop moving. At least one witness said Singleton never drew a gun.
