How they died
Deadly force
Stoddard (with passenger) drove stolen car in police chase after they attempted to pull him over. Stoddard hit a curb and continued his escape on foot, with the officers still chasing him. Officers searched and found him hiding under a car with what appeared to be a gun, but was only an airsoft gun. When officer Haworth commanded he put the gun down, he didn't, so he shot him.
