Deadly force
Lee fled in his 1986 Toyota after he was pulled over for a traffic violation, dragging Officer Marks. Lee stopped the car, and Marks was able to pull Lee to the ground, where they struggled. Marks told Lee not to move, but as he reached for his handcuffs, Lee pulled loose and got back into his car. Marks grabbed Lee again as the car began to move backwards with Marks holding on to Lee and the steering wheel; the car traveled about 45 feet while in reverse. Marks fired one shot at point-blank range from his .45-caliber service pistol that killed Lee.
