On June 12, 2025, at around 10:30 a.m., Shaun and Zachary Fallon entered the Chelsea Groton Bank wearing medical-style masks and handed a teller a note demanding cash. They left with an unknown sum and fled to a nearby Super 8 motel. Groton and Connecticut State Police located their getaway vehicle parked behind the motel by 5 p.m. They established a perimeter around the room where the Fallons were found. The pair claimed to be armed with firearms and explosives, triggering a 12-hour standoff, evacuation of guests, and deployment of SWAT and bomb technicians. Police communicated attempts were made through the door. At approximately 11:05 p.m., two gunshots sounded inside the room. A drone reconnaissance confirmed both men had been shot. Police entered the room, evacuated remaining people, and rendered medical assistance. Zachary Fallon died early on June 13 at Lawrence + Memorial Hospital.

6/17/2025: Baltimore Police allegedly detected suspected gun possession by Abdullah while police were patrolling in an unmarked cruiser. "Officer T", not further identified, in a first attempt to detain, exited the car but Abdullah broke contact and fled on foot. Detective Yancy and two detectives pursued. Yancy tackled Abdullah and a single shot sounded. Abdullah had fired at Yancy’s vest. Yancy took cover. The other two detectives drew their weapons and fired in return. Collectively, they discharged 38 rounds. One detective was struck in the foot amidst the exchange. Abdullah was transported to Shock Trauma and died at 11:14 p.m. Abdullah was a known Baltimore “arabber” which is a city tradition of horse-drawn produce vendors. He walked his route daily and mentored neighborhood youth. Community leaders and family members described him as humble, generous, and a local legend in preserving cultural history. He carried fruit to children and extended credit to elders, actions filmed in a 2014 feature by Eater and acknowledged in a public outpouring following his death. After the shooting, a crowd formed. Bystanders confronted police, delaying immediate aid for Abdullah for several minutes. Baltimore’s Police Accountability Board called an emergency meeting. Outcry has centered on whether the level of force matched the threat and about Abdullah's declining mental health. Attorney General’s Independent Investigations Division is leading the review.

Maryland’s Attorney General identified all three shooters:
Detective Devin Yancy (8-year veteran, Group Violence Unit)
Detective Omar Rodriguez (6-year veteran, Group Violence Unit)
Officer Ashley Negron (7-year veteran, Patrol Division)

Detective Yancy appears in public databases with 18 complaints (2015–19), including use-of-force complaints.

Deputies stopped a yellow Corvette for illegal window tinting near NW 62nd Street and NW 22nd Avenue on June 17, 2025 around 5:15 p.m. The driver, Laboy, refused to pull over and drove away. The Miami‑Dade Sheriff’s Office Aviation Unit tracked the vehicle and guided deputies to a dead‑end apartment complex at NW 84th Street and NW Fourth Court. Laboy exited the vehicle carrying a gun and advanced toward the deputies who were in unmarked cars and plainclothes. Deputy Kelvin Cox shot Laboy once, killing him at the parking lot. Miami‑Dade Fire Rescue pronounced Laboy dead. Laboy’s family told WSVN he called his father, panicked and fearing for his life, saying “come save me, I’m being chased, and I don’t know by whom." This detail is a major source of family criticism, as they claim Laboy was scared and confused, not realizing they were police, and that he called his father panicking before he was shot. Deputy Cox was placed on administrative leave. This was the third fatal shooting by Deputy Cox. Laboy’s family is calling for transparency, questioning whether Cox identified himself before shooting.

On the morning of June 16, 2025, San Antonio police reported that they attempted to stop a vehicle on Huebner Road. Officers claimed the car's occupants "taunted" them and "pointed guns," but no independent evidence or publicly released body camera footage confirms this version. Police chose to escalated a chase, a decision that ended in a catastrophic crash on the 10600 block of Huebner Road. Jordan died at the scene from blunt-force injuries. Three other teens survived but suffered critical injuries. Police have not disclosed the specific reason for pursuing the vehicle so aggressively nor provided evidence verifying the presence or display of firearms. Family members pushed back against the narrative that Jordan or the others threatened police. They described him as a kid who sometimes made impulsive choices but never carried weapons. His mother publicly demanded transparency and accountability, asking for video evidence and a full explanation of the officers’ decisions that led to her son's death.

On 06/15/2025 at about 3 a.m., Miami Police responded to a disturbance near Northwest First Court and Twenty Third Street in Wynwood. Officers arrived amid an ongoing fight between two men and a female bystander. According to police statement by Officer Michael Vega, officers observed “a male who was armed" with a firearm.

Multiple officers opened fire. The targeted man and a woman later identified as Evelyn Valdes, 28 were both struck and killed while another bystander was shot in the hand. Valdes was a bystander accidentally shot by police period Circumstances show police may have fired into a crowd. Witnesses reported about 10 gunshots.

On 06/15/2025, Spokane County Sheriff's Office and Washington State Patrol initiated a high-speed chase after a man carjacked a Dodge Challenger at gunpoint near a Spokane Valley coffee shop. The chase proceeded west on I‑90 toward Idaho at speeds reaching 140 mph. Along the interstate, the carjacker intentionally struck a motorcyclist, Richard Embree, near the Stateline area; Embree was hospitalized with serious injuries and died three days later from complications. The chase then returned to Spokane County, where officers deployed spike strips, disabling the car's tires at around 120 mph—creating dangerous conditions that contributed to the crash into civilian vehicles, including a motorcyclist’s, and a State Patrol vehicle. The carjacker exited at Trent Avenue, fired at law enforcement officers, and was killed when officers returned fire.
