How they died
Less-than-lethal force
Troopers were called to the rest stop along I-64 for a report of an agitated individual.. The officer reportedly was not able to reason with Taylor Ware, and he beat the officer during a fight. A police dog was sicced on Ware, and a Santa Claus officer arrived and used a Taser. Troopers say the officers were still not able to subdue Ware, and he began choking the dog with one hand while grabbing the Taser with the other and trying to shock the officer. Ware died after being restrained. Note: Santa Claus is a locality in Indiana.
