How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Officers responded for a report of a man wearing a trench coat over a towel and exposing himself to people in an apartment complex. He was carrying a pair of scissors and a chef's knife. Officers found the man acting erratically and swinging a golf club at officers. He was tasered and killed. Family members dispute the media/police version of this death: "My brother ... wasn't naked in a trenchcoat exposing himself, and he didn't have a knife, scissors or a golf club. But he was tasered, beaten and killed."
