Event : Killed by police during robbery investigation

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On November 19, 2022, at approximately 12:24 a.m., Portland Police Bureau officers responded to a reported armed robbery near Southeast Powell Boulevard and 50th Avenue. Officers pursued a vehicle they believed matched the description to the Reedwood Friends Church parking lot at 2901 SE Steele Street. As officers approached, Immanueal “Manny” Clark, a 30-year-old Black male, fled on foot. Officer Christopher Sathoff fired three shots, striking Clark once in the lower back. Clark was transported to a hospital, where he died two days later.
.
Subsequent investigations revealed that Clark was unarmed and not connected to the reported robbery. A grand jury declined to indict Officer Sathoff. However, an internal affairs investigation found the shooting violated bureau directives, though command staff later dismissed this finding. Clark's family has filed a federal lawsuit alleging excessive force and wrongful death.

Event : Killed by police during domestic disturbance response

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 11/19/2022, officers from the Town of Niagara Police Department responded to a 911 domestic disturbance call placed by Daniel Kachinoski and his mother at their residence on Chester Avenue in the Town of Niagara. Upon arrival, officers spoke separately to Mr. Kachinoski and his mother. Mr. Kachinoski became agitated, ignored repeated commands, and refused to comply with officers’ instructions. Officers attempted to use Tasers, which had no effect. Mr. Kachinoski picked up a chair and later a knife and advanced toward an officer with the knife raised. At that point, a Town of Niagara officer fired his service weapon and struck Mr. Kachinoski. Emergency medical responders arrived and Mr. Kachinoski was pronounced dead at the scene from multiple gunshot wounds. The New York State Attorney General’s Office of Special Investigation reviewed the case and concluded that a prosecutor would not be able to disprove beyond a reasonable doubt that the officer’s use of deadly force was justified under New York law. A knife was recovered at the scene.

City : Modesto

County : Stanislaus

State : California

Agency : Stanislaus County Sheriff’s Office; Modesto Police Department; Ceres Police Department

Cause of Death : Suicide

Event : Suicide under police duress

OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On 11/16/2022, deputies attempted to pull over Aaron Osgood for reckless driving in Modesto late at night. Osgood fled on foot into a business in the 100 block of Empire Avenue, and law enforcement officers established a perimeter around the building. A drone confirmed Osgood was on the roof of the structure, and deputies issued repeated commands for him to surrender. At about 11:15 p.m., Osgood crawled to the edge of the roof and fired multiple shots in the direction of deputies, who took cover and did not return fire. Osgood then fatally shot himself with a firearm while law enforcement was actively engaged in the incident. A vehicle and firearm found at the scene were later determined to be stolen, and records showed Osgood had several felony arrest warrants at the time of the encounter.
