OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :
On 11/07/2025, law-enforcement officers from the U.S. Marshals Service, assisted by deputies of the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department, attempted to serve a warrant on Ricardo Kirk at a residence on Shell Oil Road in Brandon, Mississippi. The warrant was issued for Kirk by the Omaha Police Department in relation to aggravated assault with a firearm. Upon arrival just after 5:40 p.m., the suspect fired at officers from inside the home and barricaded himself. After negotiations and additional rounds of gunfire, deputies heard a single gunshot from within the home around 8:45 p.m. They later breached the door and found Kirk with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation is reviewing the incident.
