A license plate reader had seen a plate belonging to a stolen 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe heading south at 12:49 p.m. Two officers in a patrol car spotted the SUV at a BP station. One officer got out and walked to the SUV, spotting Demario Bass inside. The officer opened the car door. Bass put the vehicle into reverse and accelerated backward. The officer reportedly became lodged between the open door and the SUV, throwing him at least partly into the vehicle. The officer fired at least one time, killing Bass.
