On November 18, 2024, James J. Vanest, 68, was fatally shot by police officers during an attempt to arrest him at the Rodeway Inn in Jackson Township, Ohio. Vanest, wanted in West Virginia for federal weapons violations, had a violent criminal history dating back to the 1970s.

The Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force, along with the Canton Police and SWAT, attempted to negotiate his surrender but were met with gunfire from Vanest, who shot at officers through windows and walls. A North Canton police officer, serving on the SWAT team, was wounded in the arm during the exchange, requiring surgery. Officers returned fire, fatally wounding Vanest. The situation led to the temporary closure of a section of Interstate 77. Two firearms and spent bullet casings were found at the scene.
