On March 27, 2014, 43-year-old Larry Dale Plaster died after an encounter with law enforcement in Sayre, Oklahoma. Officers from the Sayre Police Department went to his residence to serve felony warrants for failure to pay child support and an earlier charge of attempting to elude while under the influence. Plaster resisted, fled, and officers pursued him; a Beckham County Sheriff’s deputy joined the response.

During a confrontation the deputy and Plaster struggled, and Plaster reportedly struck the deputy multiple times with an ax. Officers attempted to use tasers but were reportedly unsuccessful. The deputy then fired several rounds; at least one round fatally struck Plaster. The deputy was treated for injuries and released from the hospital.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation was called to investigate and was to present findings to the district attorney for a determination on the use of deadly force. No arrest or final conclusion has been reported. Does anyone have additional facts about the sequence of events or the investigation?
