How they died

Vehic/Purs

Long Island electrician Calhoun died when a other being aggressively chased by county deputies crashed through the walls of his house. The county commissioner defended his chase policy as reasonable and justified; the same jurisdiction caused another chase death seven months later, killing Gabriel Bergtiani. Calhoun had been two months away from retirement.
