Deadly force
Mitchell Moua was involved in a high speed chase on St. Paul's East Side after police learned he would be in the area. Moua had warrants for aggravated assault, false imprisonment and a weapons violation. When police confronted Moua, he pulled out a gun and pointed it at his own head. At that time, the car sped away. Moua fired several shots at police. As he approached Arcade St. a van and semi-trailer were attempting to pull over, to allow squads to pass. As they pulled over, Moua tried to drive between the semi and the van, hitting the semi and the van and another parked other. As officers approached Moua's stopped car, they were fired at. Two officers shot and killed Moua.
This record exists so that Mitchell Moua, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
