According
to the criminal complaint, a woman had called Belle Plaine police
around 1:15 a.m. on Tuesday to report a protection order violation at
her apartment. She said her ex-boyfriend, later identified as Weeks, was
pounding on the walls of her building.
She reported that he had a
gun and feared she would die if he was able to get inside the building.
She also said that Weeks had messaged her, saying he had shot himself.
Later, the woman told police that Weeks had said that on June 16, he and Henry had broken up.
Officers
arrived on scene to find the silver Audi Weeks had arrived in parked in
the lot. He had fled on foot before their arrival.
The complaint
goes on to say that the officers found a large amount of blood inside
the car, as well as a 9mm casing in the passenger seat. When they
followed the blood trail, they found that the door handle to a utility
room on the far side of the building had been damaged and the key card
access reader to the apartment had been pulled off the wall.
