How they died

Deadly force

Off-duty Buffalo officer Charles E. Gidney shot at two intruders in what was described as a violent home invasion of his own house. He wounded one, Anthony T. Creamer, and killed the other, Sayles. Police released none of these names at the time of the incident. Sayles had been a figure in the year 2000 federal indictments of four Buffalo officers accused of, among other things, stealing $36K from an undercover FBI agent.
