How they died

No

Graniczny and Nicholas Meacham sprayed graffiti on the walls near the El Paso School of Excellence. Officer Michael Balderrama responded. The two climbed onto the roof of the school. Meacham left. Officers Steven Smith and Adrian Gonzalez joined Officer Balderrama in pursuing and handcuffing Graniczny on the roof of the school. El Paso Fire Department laid a ladder against the school. Graniczny was uncuffed so he could climb down the ladder. He went off the side of the building and died of his injuries.
