Resisting Police Leads to One Man's Death

Captain Mike Parker said that last Thursday, the drug task force got together for a debriefing in a parking lot.  Prior to the meeting, the task force had served a search warrant and during the meeting, officers noticed a man was looking into cars.  Some of the cars including those of task force members.

A police officer confronted the man and a struggle commenced.  The sheriff's deputy pulled out his gun and ordered the man to lay on the ground.  However, the deputy was rammed by a Toyota sedan that has crashed into the group of officers.  The deputy was thrown onto the windshield of the vehicle and fell off while a federal agent shot and killed the driver.
