Officer Davis was just finishing his shift when he stopped at the restaurant for breakfast, and was told of the offense by the manager. Officer Davis caught up with the suspect who was on foot and confronted him, while still seated in his patrol car. Officer Davis ordered the suspect to stop walking while speaking to him through the open driver's side window. The suspect then turned away from Officer Davis and began to walk in the reverse direction. Officer Davis placed his vehicle in reverse and continued to follow and talk to the suspect while calling for backup on his radio. In a fit of rage, the suspect pulled Officer Davis out of his patrol car through the driver's window, and the suspect succeeded in taking his gun away. As Officer Davis remained on his knees, the suspect shot him twice. Then, the suspect walked away with Officer Davis' gun, and responding officers later apprehended him and recovered the gun. He was sentenced to 27 years in prison, and is scheduled to be released on March 10, 2003.
Officer Davis had been a member of the Seattle Police Department for five years, and is survived by his wife and three sons.
