At Rest

Deadly force
Fugitive Santos led police on a wild, destructive car crash for six miles on NYC streets. Wanted on various drug and assault charges, and with a record of 14 arrests, Santos boxed himself into narrow construction traffic on the Major Deegan Expressway. When officers also stuck in the same traffic approached on foot Santos rammed his battered other back and forth. Police fired 19 shots. Santos died of five wounds.
This record exists so that Orlando Santos, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
