Deadly force
According to police, Scottie Alan Clark shot and wounded his ex-wife in in her driveway around 2:30 p.m., and then led officers on a high-speed chase to his home. Officers shot at Clark after he allegedly struck their patrol vehicles, pushing one of them into a deputy. Police initially said they didn't know if they shot Clark, if he shot himself, or if he fired any shots, per reports. Two Hillsdale County deputies, two Lenawee County deputies, one Hudson police officer and one state trooper were placed on administrative leave after the shooting. In July, it was reported Clark had shot himself, but it wasn't determined whether he died from the self-inflicted wound or from bullets fired by police.
This record exists so that Scottie Alan Clark, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
