6034James M. Cummings46MaleRace unspecified04/06/2007St. LouisMO38.7669364-90.2015996St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department

James M. Cummings was killed when an Ford F-150 fleeing police struck his Saturn. The 25-mile chase began in downtown St. Louis, when officer Robert Lang, who was in an unmarked police car, thought the truck fit the description of one connected to recent burglaries. Several other officers joined the pursuit as it continued onto I-70 and through residential north St. Louis. According to police, a supervisor called off the chase before it crossed into Illinois, though it was disputed whether officers obeyed. The Ford's driver, Sean Like, said police stayed close behind the entire time as he circled back to Missouri on I-270, exited at Riverview Drive and re-entered I-270. Like was driving west in the eastbound lanes when he hit Cummings' car at 3 a.m. Like, 23, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, leaving the scene of a fatal accident, tampering with a motor vehicle and resisting arrest. The SLMPD paid $550,000 and the city paid $150,000 to settle a wrongful death suit--the highest settlement the department paid in 2010. No formal admission of wrongdoing--six officers were given a refresher course on pursuit policy; one sergeant was verbally reprimanded, and two lieutenants were suspended for one day. Three of the officers involved had since left the department (as of Feb. 2011), including one who testified that he had been involved in a number of chases that resulted in crashes.

Billy punched Ryan, a fight ensued and Mrs. Meyers called the police. Officer Romeo arrived at the scene and found Mr. Meyers and Billy standing in the front yard. Mr. Meyers was nursing a swollen and lacerated nose. Officer Romeo investigated and saw Ryan walking through the house, carrying a baseball bat. Officer Gaedke arrived at the scene, and she and Officer Romeo tried to convince Ryan to surrender. He responded by stating, "No, you're going to have to kill me." Officer Romeo requested the assistance of an officer trained to use a taser and Officer Mee responded. The officers entered the home and Officer Mee ordered Ryan to drop the baseball bat. Ryan did not immediately comply. Officer Mee fired the probes of his taser into Ryan and shocked him three times before Ryan dropped the baseball bat and fell to the ground.

After Ryan had been shocked for the tenth time, the officers noticed that he was unconscious. Paramedics arrived and found Ryan in a state of cardiac arrest. They were unable to revive him.
