On April 20, 2024, a Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) trooper initiated a high-speed pursuit of a stolen Honda CRV occupied by four teenagers—Lawrence McClendon Jr. (17), Jabril Cheevers (16), Teleak Roberts (15), and Philemon Moore (14)—on State Road 24 near U.S. 301 in Waldo, Florida. The vehicle, reported stolen from Gainesville, was detected by a license plate reader.

As law enforcement attempted a traffic stop, the vehicle initially slowed but then accelerated, reaching speeds up to 111 mph. During the pursuit, the FHP trooper executed a Precision Immobilization Technique (PIT) maneuver, causing the vehicle to roll over and collide with a concrete utility pole. Two occupants were pronounced dead at the scene, while the other two died from their injuries at UF Health Shands Hospital in Gainesville.

On 04/20/2024, at approximately 9:00 p.m., Ada County Sheriff's Deputy Tobin Bolter conducted a traffic stop near W. Overland Road and S. Raymond Street in Boise. As Deputy Bolter approached the vehicle, the driver, identified as 65-year-old Dennis Mulqueen, shot him through the driver's side window. Mulqueen then fled the scene. Responding officers located Mulqueen's abandoned vehicle near S. Dorian Street and W. Roosevelt Street. A perimeter was established, and after an hour of failed negotiations, the Boise Police Department's Special Operations Unit advanced on Mulqueen's position. Mulqueen fired at the officers, striking a tactical shield. Detective Josh Sontag returned fire, hitting Mulqueen twice. Mulqueen was transported to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. The Bonner County Prosecuting Attorney reviewed the incident and determined that Detective Sontag's use of deadly force was justified under Idaho law.
