Dakota Radriquez Gray

Case # :2326

Age :18

Gender :Male

Race : Black

Date : 12/01/2023

Location : 13th+Jefferson

City : Laurel

County : Jones

State : Mississippi

Agency : Laurel PD

Officer(s) : Not Disclosed

Cause of death : Vehicle

Event : Killed by police chase crash

Disposition : No Known charges

Open records summary :

Laurel PD set up a “safe checkpoint” and stopped 18-year-old Dakota Gray. Police felt they smelled marijuana and the driver fled with police chasing the vehicle at high speeds until it crashed into a tree, killing Dakota Gray. Police allege that they called off the chase just before impact, a very common police action when a fatal crash is likely. During a chase, a person is considered “in custody” with the PD bearing responsibility for the chase. If a crash is imminent at high speeds and the chase is “called off” moments prior, it is just an accident and no longer the result of a pursuit. This pattern is so repetitive that numerous cases can be found in this database by searching for the words “called off.” Dakota Gray, an 18-year-old driver died in such a called-off chase and a cannabis odor.

Location : Unknown

City : Kannapolis

County : Cabarrus

State : North Carolina

Agency : Kannapolis PD, Cabarus County SO

Officer(s) : Unknown

Cause of death : Gunshot

Event : Killed by police during investigation

Disposition : No Known charges

Open records summary :

Cabarrus County deputies and Kannapolis PD converged on a home of an unnamed 33-year-old man who had been chatting with an “15-year-old girl” set as a trap by detectives in a child sex predator sting. It is unknown how far the conversation went and if the man had any prior history of child sexual abuse as police only mentioned an inappropriate chat and an attempt to meet a teenage girl prior to raiding his home and shooting and killing him. His guilt was suspected but not established as police executed him before the matter could be taken before a judge and jury instead of police taking lethal action and in their defense explaining only that he was a potential child sex predator. The evidence for this has not been presented to the courts or public which makes this hasty killing concerning.

Case # :2307

Age :

Gender :Male

Race : Unknown

Date : 11/30/2023

Location : Unknown

City : Houston

County : Harris

State : Texas

Agency : Houston PD

Officer(s) : Unknown

Cause of death : Gunshot

Event : Killed after homicide and high-risk chase

Disposition : No Known charges

Open records summary :

A family dispute escalated to fatal events in which a man killed his father under unknown circumstances. The man chose a desperate path of fleeing from police, allegedly tried to steal or hijack a vehicle and failed, tried to run and hide in a school building and failed, was located by police which caused him to flee even harder, successfully hijack a vehicle which was inadvertently caused by police. This occurred when a motorist saw police lights and sirens behind him and pulled over for police. When pulled over, the hijacker saw the man who had pulled over for police sirens on the side of the road in the car, jumped into the car and at gunpoint forced the man out and drove away. The man was hunted into a dead end by police, allegedly got out with a fun and police shot and killed him.

This was not a random crime but the result of a violent family dispute. The man definitely needed to be stopped and dealt with after a family homicide. But this was done in such a manner as to greatly jeopardize the general public with high-speed chases, aggressive foot chases that nearly landed in a school and a carjacked bystander, also the direct result of the aggressive police chase. This man was not likely a danger to the public as his offense was family-related and should have been tried to be arrested at a time and place, even hours later elsewhere, where this did not present such a risk to the population of greater Houston. It is fortunate that only one person died in this dangerous chase and shootout in an urban area.
