Frank Sandor, 38, of Cleveland, was shot and killed by police on October 19, 2016, in the parking lot of a Lowe’s Home Improvement in Willoughby, Ohio. Officers encountered Sandor in a stolen vehicle; he had outstanding felony warrants for drug possession and escape. When approached, he gave false information and then attempted to flee by driving in reverse, striking a police motorcycle and slightly injuring an officer. An officer fired shots to protect the public, the car crashed across the street, and Sandor was transported to Lake West Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the Willoughby Police Department both investigated. Officers involved were not publicly identified, though Willoughby Police Chief Jack Beckwith described them as veteran officers.

What information do readers have about the events that night or about Sandor’s history that might help clarify the sequence of events?
