Fearing retaliation from the other gang, Chase barricaded himself in his house. As the result of Chase being involved in a gang related shooting, and suspecting he might be armed, the police arranged a dawn entry into his apartment by armed police. Being startled, Chase thought a rival gang was trying to break into his house, and to defend himself, he approached the police with a weight bar, which the armed officers mistook for a gun barrel and shot him dead. Barred by ACC law in suing for damages, his estate sued for exemplary damages.
