On June 25, 2025, just after 3:45 p.m., Honolulu Police officers in an unmarked vehicle pursued a stolen pickup truck on Hana Street in Makaha. Police claim the driver, 38-year-old Iosua Stevens, reversed and rammed the police vehicle, causing it to catch fire and temporarily trapping one of the officers inside. Officers then opened fire, shooting Stevens multiple times. He was taken to Queens Medical Center in critical condition and placed on life support. Police stated he was wanted on three felony warrants and had been charged earlier in June with assaulting an officer. No firearm was recovered at the scene. The Honolulu Medical Examiner’s Office and Independent Investigations Division are reviewing the incident. Questions have been raised by community members over whether deadly force was necessary and whether alternative tactics could have prevented the escalation.

Late on June 24, 2025, Donte Melton Jr., 31, was in a mental health crisis when he approached a Baltimore Police officer in a marked cruiser at a red light on West Franklin Street near North Franklintown Road. He walked into traffic and allegedly resisted officers. Police engaged him in what the preliminary report calls a “violent scuffle” before they placed him in handcuffs and leg shackles. Officers requested medical assistance repeatedly—first at approximately 9:48 p.m. and again at 9:55 p.m.—but Baltimore’s CAD system was down, and no medic arrived. After Melton became unresponsive on the pavement, officers placed him in their vehicle and drove him to a hospital. It is unknown how long he was down restrained in cuffs and leg shackles on the pavement before he finally arrived at the hospital. He died about 5½ hours after the initial encounter, before midnight or in the early morning hours of June 25. Melton remained unresponsive on the pavement before being transported. While the exact duration has not been disclosed, his mother describes him lying helplessly on hot asphalt while officers discussed how to get him help. No EMS ever arrived during that time. His mother, Eleshiea Goode, has pressed for transparency and accountability, citing delayed or denied access to records including those from the medical examiner and hospital, and frustration over the lack of communication about body-worn camera footage or the circumstances of death. The Maryland Attorney General’s Independent Investigations Division named 10 officers involved and has delayed releasing the body-worn video due to the technical complexity and volume of footage involved. His exact cause of death has not been made public. The investigation is ongoing and his mother is demanding answers.

Seattle Police Department officers responded around 4:51 a.m. to a domestic violence call at 32nd Avenue East and East Madison Street. Officers found a woman with a gunshot wound to her lower back who collapsed into their arms. While officers provided aid, Daniel Jolliffe fired multiple shots from an upstairs window at officers and the victim. Officer Leonardo Bassi Rodriguez returned fire and struck Jolliffe. SPD set a perimeter and engaged SWAT and Hostage Negotiation Team efforts. Jolliffe fired at a drone, barricaded inside, and ignored commands. After roughly an hour, SWAT used a robot and explosive charge to breach. Officers found Jolliffe unresponsive in a bedroom. King County Medical Examiner later ruled the death as suicide by self-inflicted gunshot wound, not by police fire. The woman was transported to Harborview Medical Center in serious but stable condition. SPD Force Investigation Team, Office of Police Accountability, and Office of Inspector General opened investigations. Officer Rodriguez was placed on administrative leave and body-worn video was released within 72 hours.
