Michael David Clifton

Deadly force

A police pursuit started in Monroe, Michigan, and came through the Old West End. Toledo police officers joined the chase and continued until the driver crashed into several parked cars, disabling his truck. Police said Michael Clifton got out of his other and led officers on foot down Scottwood and then Bancroft with a firearm to his head. Clifton got to the parking lot of the Monroe Carryout, where officers attempted to negotiate with him. Eventually, negotiations failed, and the officers shot and killed Clifton.
