William Clifford Cole

Deadly force

Bartlesville police responded to a domestic assault and battery call at a home, but Cole had gone down the road. When police got to the street for the second time, they say a woman came out of the house and Cole followed her, rushing through the door and tackling her to the ground. Officers used a Taser on Cole but said it didn't stop him. Cole punched an officer in the face, who then shot and killed him.
