On June 10, 2024, at approximately 5:45 a.m., Deputy Jonathan Lee of the Johnston County Sheriff’s Office was departing UNC Health Johnston in Clayton, North Carolina, in a marked patrol vehicle. As he exited the hospital parking lot, 24-year-old José Luis Rincón López approached and allegedly attempted to seize the deputy's firearm.

The North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) is conducting an independent inquiry into the incident. Deputy Lee, 32, has been placed on administrative leave with pay, adhering to department policy.

On June 6, 2024, at approximately 7:15 p.m., a Noble County Sheriff's deputy attempted to stop a motorcycle exceeding the speed limit by over 20 mph on State Road 9 near Churubusco, Indiana. The motorcyclist, identified as 37-year-old Kyle J. Garrett of Albion, Indiana, instead drove southbound at high speeds. The pursuit reached 100 miles an hour, and officers "called the chase" at Churubusco city limits.
.
Garrett continued driving southbound on U.S. 33. At approximately 7:25 p.m., his motorcycle collided with the rear of a Jeep SUV stopped in the center turn lane near McCoy Avenue. The motorcycle burst into flames following the impact. Garrett died at the crash site. The timeline suggests that police called off the chase within seconds of the crash.
.
The Indiana State Police are investigating the incident. Multiple agencies assisted at the scene, including Churubusco Police, Whitley County Sheriff’s Department, Churubusco Smith Township Fire Department, Parkview EMS, and the Whitley County Coroner.

On June 7, 2024, at approximately 12:26 a.m., a Crystal Police Department officer observed a motorcycle traveling at a high speed on eastbound 42nd Avenue North near Winnetka Avenue. The officer initiated a traffic stop, but the motorcyclist, identified as 21-year-old Lucas Zander Weyenberg, allegedly fled. The officer pursued Weyenberg; however, after losing sight of the motorcycle, the officer allegedly "called off the chase." Shortly thereafter, Hennepin County Dispatch received a 911 call reporting a single-motorcycle crash at the intersection of 42nd Avenue North and West Broadway Avenue in Robbinsdale. Police arrived and found Weyenberg lying in the street with severe injuries. Despite life-saving efforts, he was pronounced dead at the scene. The Robbinsdale Police Department and the Minnesota State Patrol are conducting the investigation.
.
Distance Between Pursuit Termination and Crash Site:
The pursuit was terminated near the intersection of 42nd Avenue North and Winnetka Avenue. The crash occurred at the intersection of 42nd Avenue North and West Broadway Avenue. The distance between these two intersections is approximately 0.5 miles. Police only commented that they chased the motorcycle at a very high rate of speed. Using the speed of 100 mph as an example, it would take a motorcycle 15 seconds from the time a chase is called off until fatal crash 156 seconds. This time span is not enough time to slow down and de-escalate speed and it is unknown whether the driver knew that seconds before his death that police had decided to call off the chase.
