How they died
Deadly force
Le was cutting his neck with scissors, and a neighbor called police for help. Officers said that Le wouldn't drop his scissors and lunged at them, one officer shot him dead in the forehead. The family's attorney disputes that Le lunged at officers, and Le was taking the type of medication one takes for schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
