Search fatalities

On Friday, July 11, 2025, at approximately 8:35 p.m., deputies from the McDuffie County Sheriff’s Office responded to a domestic disturbance call at a residence in the 800 block of Leslie Street in Thomson, Georgia. When officers arrived, they made entry into the residence and encountered 63-year-old Arval Gross reportedly armed with a shotgun in a hallway of the home.
According to preliminary statements from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI), Gross raised the shotgun in the direction of deputies, prompting two deputies to open fire. Gross was struck by gunfire and pronounced dead at the scene.
The GBI was immediately notified and is conducting an independent investigation, which includes crime scene analysis, interviews, and weapon examination. The firearm allegedly held by Gross was recovered at the scene. No other occupants of the home have been identified or reported harmed.
The deputies involved have not been publicly named, and their duty status has not been disclosed. An autopsy is scheduled at the GBI Crime Lab in Decatur, and toxicology results are pending.

On Friday, July 11, 2025, at approximately 6:22 p.m., Haverhill police responded to multiple 911 calls reporting a man behaving erratically near White Street, weaving in and out of traffic. The individual was identified as 43-year-old Francis Gigliotti. Witnesses reported that Gigliotti had fallen and struck his head on a passing vehicle, prompting concerns about his physical and mental state.
Officers made contact with Gigliotti and reportedly called for emergency medical assistance. However, before EMS arrived, Gigliotti fled the area on foot, running toward Bradford Seafood Restaurant & Fish Market at 124 Winter Street. Officers followed and attempted to restrain him outside the business.
A physical struggle ensued during which officers attempted to subdue Gigliotti on the pavement. According to witnesses and video evidence reviewed by local media, officers were seen holding Gigliotti down as he screamed for help, reportedly face down on the ground. During the restraint, Gigliotti became unresponsive.
He was transported to a nearby hospital where he was later pronounced dead. The Massachusetts Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is conducting an autopsy to determine the official cause and manner of death, which remains undisclosed at this time.
The incident is under joint investigation by the Essex County District Attorney’s Office and Haverhill Police Department. Officials have not released the number or identity of the officers involved, whether body camera footage exists, or whether departmental use-of-force policies were followed.
Family members have raised concerns publicly, questioning the level of force used and demanding transparency. Community advocates have also called for an independent review of the case and the release of all available footage and reports.

On Friday, July 11, 2025, officers with the St. Paul Police Department responded to a domestic disturbance call involving a man and a child in the 1100 block of Clarence Street, near the Aldi grocery store. The man was later identified as 32-year-old Tevin Marcel Bellaphant.
When officers located Bellaphant in the Aldi parking lot with the child and attempted to take him into custody, he assaulted the officers and then produced a firearm, according to preliminary statements from police. A gunfire exchange occurred inside the Aldi, during which no officers were hit.
Bellaphant fled the scene on foot and entered a nearby Cub Foods store. While inside, two bystanders were struck by gunfire. Their injuries were later described as non-life-threatening, though officials have not yet stated definitively whether the gunfire came from Bellaphant or during the earlier police exchange.
Bellaphant was found inside the store suffering from a self-inflicted gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene. A firearm was recovered nearby. The child involved in the original domestic call was located safely and removed from the area.
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) is leading the investigation, which includes reviewing body camera footage, forensic evidence, and interviewing witnesses. Officials have not disclosed how many officers discharged their weapons, nor whether Bellaphant had a prior criminal history.
The identities of the officers involved have not been released, and no formal departmental statements have addressed whether policy was followed during the attempted arrest. Surveillance footage from both stores is being reviewed by investigators.

On Friday, July 11, 2025, at approximately 2:30 a.m., officers with the Kenner Police Department attempted to stop a gold Honda Pilot driven by 26-year-old Elvin Santos Banegas in connection with alleged road-rage behavior in the vicinity of Airline Highway and Taylor Street.
When Banegas refused to stop, officers escalated the encounter into a high-speed pursuit, with speeds reportedly reaching 90 miles per hour. The chase moved northbound on Taylor Street, where Banegas crossed West Metairie Avenue, vaulted over a curb and canal, and crashed into the opposite canal bank.
The vehicle sustained significant damage in the crash. Banegas was found critically injured and was transported to a local hospital, where he later died from his injuries.
Police stated that the initial incident appeared to involve a second vehicle, described as a red Ford Mustang, which may have played a role in the original road-rage situation. Authorities are seeking information from the public about the Mustang and its driver but have not confirmed if it was involved in the pursuit or contributed to the crash.
The names of the officers involved in the pursuit have not been released, and no dashcam or body camera footage has been made public. It remains unclear whether pursuit policy was followed or if the decision to chase at high speeds in a residential area has been subject to internal review.

On 07/09/2025, at a residence in the 5200 block of Paulson Road in Middleton, Wisconsin, three members of a family were found dead in what police are investigating as a double murder-suicide involving a high-profile law enforcement official.
Among the deceased was David Pabst, 64, who had served as Wisconsin State Patrol Superintendent Anthony Burrell prior to retirement. (Note: Sources originally misidentified Burrell as the current superintendent; David Pabst, his predecessor, was confirmed as the victim alongside his wife, Tracy Pabst, 56.)
The couple’s son, James Pabst, 25, is alleged to have shot and killed both parents inside the home before retreating into a barricaded position. Middleton Police and Dane County Sheriff’s deputies responded, initiating a brief standoff, during which James took his own life as officers surrounded the home.
The motive for the killings has not been released, and no prior history of domestic conflict or mental health crisis has been publicly confirmed. Investigators recovered a handgun at the scene, and autopsies for all three individuals have been ordered by the Dane County Medical Examiner’s Office.
The Middleton Police Department is leading the investigation, with assistance from the Dane County Sheriff’s Office and Wisconsin Department of Justice. Officials have not released details on any 911 calls, timeline of events, or whether any warning signs were observed before the killings.
