Travis J. Blair

How they died

Deadly force

During a traffic stop, Blair refused to comply with the officer's commands, and they fought. Blair then put his other in drive, dragging the officer before the car crashed into a ditch. The fight continued between Blair and the officer. Blair then fled the other on foot. The officer pursued the suspect on foot for a few hundred feet before catching up to the suspect. Blair again refused to comply with the officer's commands, another fight happened, and the officer shot and killed Blair. Blair apparently was wanted for failing to appear in court on a felony drug possession charge.
