How they died
Deadly force
Police responded to a 911 call in which the caller reported hearing gunshots and an unknown female yelling for help. The caller couldn't give them an exact address. Three officers were sent to the location and ended up at David Powell's home. The GBI says the 911 call indicates that the officers were at the wrong location. Officers were met by Powell, who was armed with a handgun. They say he ignored verbal commands to drop the weapon, and Sgt. Patrick Snook shot and killed him.
