CIRCUMSTANCES OF DEATH: GUNSHOT

The following circumstances were gathered from police personnel as well as personal observation. The decedent was originally called
in as Unidentified and later was identified by fingerprints,

The decedent was a 41 year old male with a history of drug use who had active warrants for criminal activity. The
decedent was recently witnessed waving a gun around. This was what what prompted the most recent warrant and the
traffic stop by Hartford Police. The decedent has a long history of violent tendencies and was estranged from his family.
He has had arrests in the past for assault, burglaries, narcotics, and possession of machine guns.
The decedent was the driver of a Nissan Maxima registered to a female with the same last name. He had a passenger and
they had been discussing the decedent having lost a lot of weight and a comment was made that the decedent may have
a "drug sickness like AIDS".
The Hartford Police Street Crimes Unit was attempting to stop the decedent's vehicle at Capital Avenue and Park Street,
but the vehicle fled onto the 1-84 westbound ramp. The vehicle struck several other vehicles attempting to escape as
there were construction vehicles on the ramp. At that point, the car was stopped. Plain clothes officers approached the
vehicle and laid stop sticks under the front of the car. The car was attempting to jockey back and forth to get away. Once
the car stopped, the passenger got out and surrendered. The car had a flat front tire.
The decedent exited the vehicle and lunged towards Hartford Police Officers attempting to gain one of the officers
weapons. The decedent was given verbal commands by the officers; the decedent failed to comply. The decedent was
allegedly subdued at one point with non lethal action, but he was able to gain control of one of the officer's guns. He
allegedly broke the holster to gain access to this gun. The oficer made the others aware that the decedent had his gun.
Another officer fired a weapon and struck the decedent. He reportedly fired 3 times.
Per the passenger in the car, the decedent said "l am ready to die, ready to die" as he was getting out of the car.
