On 05/06/2024, St. Paul Police Department officers responded to a 911 call regarding a mental health crisis involving 41-year-old Pepsi Lee Heinl in St. Paul, Minnesota. The caller reported that Heinl was armed with a knife and behaving erratically, posing a potential threat to herself and others.

Upon arrival, officers Chiking Chazonkhueze, Chee Lao, and Yengkong Lor attempted to de-escalate the situation by engaging Heinl in verbal communication, urging her to drop the weapon. Despite their efforts, Heinl did not comply and advanced toward the officers while holding the knife.
.
The officers initially tried to create distance and issued repeated commands for Heinl to stop, but the situation escalated rapidly when she continued to move toward them. At that point, all three officers discharged their firearms, striking Heinl multiple times. Medical personnel were called to the scene but pronounced her deceased upon arrival.
.
The St. Paul Police Department stated that the officers involved have been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation. The department’s internal affairs unit is reviewing the incident, and the Ramsey County Attorney’s Office will examine the findings to determine whether the use of force was justified.

On 05/03/2024, 23-year-old Roger Fortson, an active-duty U.S. Air Force serviceman stationed at Hurlburt Field, was fatally shot in his apartment at 319 Racetrack Road in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Deputy Eddie Duran of the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office was responding to a disturbance call unrelated to Fortson when he knocked on Fortson's door. Fortson, who was on a FaceTime call at the time, retrieved his legally owned firearm for self-defense and opened the door with the gun pointed downward. Deputy Duran immediately fired six shots, striking Fortson. Fortson was transported to a hospital, where he died from his injuries.
.
An internal investigation by the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office concluded that Duran’s actions were "not objectively reasonable" and violated departmental policies. Duran was terminated from his position on 05/31/2024. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump, representing Fortson's family, stated that Fortson was a legal gun owner with no criminal record, acting to defend himself in his home. Crump and human rights advocates have highlighted potential racial bias and the use of excessive force in the incident, calling for accountability.
.
On 08/25/2024, Eddie Duran was charged with manslaughter with a firearm, a first-degree felony punishable by up to 30 years in prison. He was arrested and later released on a $100,000 bond. Fortson’s family, represented by Crump, is pursuing justice and pushing for systemic changes to prevent similar incidents.
.
Roger Fortson, originally from Atlanta, Georgia, was a decorated U.S. Air Force member serving in the 4th Special Operations Squadron. Known for his dedication and integrity, he had recently returned from an overseas mission. The case has drawn widespread attention, with advocates and community leaders emphasizing the need for transparency and justice in police interactions, particularly concerning racial disparities.

Zachariah White walked around in traffic erratically, then entered a nursing home where he entered random rooms. Police attacked him with a taser, then shot and killed him. Police allege he took the metal foot rest of a wheelchair, apparently after he was tasered, and came at police with it. This was the explanation given why the apparently unarmed man was killed. White reportedly wore a hospital wristband at the time he was killed. It is not immediately clear what his connection to the nursing home was. It is also unknown what he may have wanted when he entered the nursing home where he was killed. He was not reported to be violent other than a self-attempt effort with a wheelchair footpad after the taser attack.
