    Cicero Sanchez, 31, lays dead at the scene near South 317th Street and 28 Avenue South after two King County Sheriff’s Office deputies shot him following a vehicle pursuit on May 4, 2022. Multiple vehicles, both unmarked and marked, surround Sanchez’s vehicle. A King County Sheriff’s Office vehicle pins the driver’s door of Sanchez’s vehicle shut with the window half open. The original family liaison for the Sanchez family, Douglas Faini, said in an email that Sanchez climbed out of the open window. Sanchez’s body has been censored with a black box by this newspaper’s editorial staff. (Photo courtesy of Cristy Sanchez)
