Deputy Bradley J. Reckling, 30, was fatally shot in Detroit, MI.
An Oakland County deputy was shot and killed in the line of duty, according to the sheriff's office.
Police say a car was stolen between 1 p.m. and 5:15 p.m. on Saturday.
The sheriff’s auto theft unit began searching for the stolen 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. Three detectives were looking for the vehicle in Detroit when one of them located it. As the detective followed the vehicle, the driver stopped, and “people” exited the car, opening fire on Reckling in what was described as “an ambush.”
Reckling was shot in the head, chest, and torso. The unmarked police car did not have a dash camera.
Three were taken into custody. The media neglected to mention their race.

50-year-old BillyJo K. Perkins was fatally shot in Seattle, WA.
Jaden P. Taylor, 16, was arrested.
The 16-year-old was charged with murder in connection to the shooting death at a Shoreline apartment complex.
Perkins was shot multiple times after she attempted to intervene in a confrontation between Taylor and another woman.
Surveillance footage at an apartment complex captured the late night incident in front of the office management building.
The footage shows a man walking past the management office with two women, followed by a small group. Perkins, walking her dog, passed through the group.
Detectives state that the man ahead of the group engaged in a conversation and later pointed a pistol at the two women, with a blue laser dot appearing on one of the women's faces. Perkins attempted to intervene by grabbing the man's hair from behind. The man then spun around, struck Perkins in the head, and shoved her into a car, with the laser dot now on her chest.
As the group scattered, Perkins' grip on the shooter's hair loosened, and she slid to the ground. The shooter stumbled, hit his knee and arm on the sidewalk, ran up the stairs into an apartment unit, and later fled the scene in a black Honda.
Three hours after the shooting, Taylor checked into Evergreen Hospital with a gunshot wound to the foot. Taylor, whose clothing and appearance matched that of the shooter in the surveillance video, became hostile when questioned about how he was shot.
Detectives later interviewed the driver of the black Honda. The driver stated that Taylor had shown up at his front door after the shooting, claiming he had been shot. The driver initially agreed to take Taylor to the hospital but instead drove him to a nearby park to meet someone after noticing no visible gunshot wounds. The driver reported that Taylor began screaming after hearing distant gunfire, saying, "I had to!" and "She tried to rob me."
A search of Taylor's residence revealed a pair of ripped jeans matching those seen in the surveillance footage. Two bullets consistent with the caliber found at the scene were discovered in the jeans' pockets. An empty box for a blue laser sight was also found in the living room.
Taylor is charged with second-degree murder, first-degree assault, and second-degree unlawful possession of a firearm.
The incident underscores the importance of freedom of association, including the right to live among people groups like yourself. [source]
Kathryn Garton Holmes, 67, was fatally shot in Greensboro, NC.
Troy Marquise Gillard, 31, was charged with first-degree murder.
On May 24, Holmes was on her way to meet Gillard for a planned transaction arranged through an online marketplace. While driving she was shot in the neck and paralyzed. Unable to lift her foot from the accelerator, Holmes' vehicle crashed into a creek bed. She passed away two days later.
Hours after the shooting, police received a tip about someone entering a home in the 500 block of Denny Road. A search revealed the house was unoccupied, but it was later discovered that Gillard had a family connection to the property.
"For the first-degree murder charge, there are two punishments: either life in prison without parole or the death penalty," said Guilford County District Court Judge Joel Oakley.
Holmes had a distinguished career as a supervisor at the police and fire communications center with 911 dispatch for the City of Coral Gables in Florida, where she met her husband, a police lieutenant for the Coral Gables Police Department.
Her daughter mentioned that Holmes was excited about being the mother of the bride, as her daughter is getting married in November. [source]

Christine Ann Barsanti, 79, was killed in a Bedford, TX home invasion.
Brandon Paramore, 39, was arrested.
Barsanti’s grandchildren found her body.
"The officers that were called to the scene reviewed the Ring video doorbell and recognized the voice as that of an individual they had encountered earlier in the day."
Investigators report that surveillance footage shows Paramore ringing Barsanti's doorbell and requesting to use her phone. When she refused, he forced his way inside.
Police noted that Paramore has a distinctive southern accent. Hours before approaching Barsanti’s home, he was reportedly loitering and panhandling at several businesses, which had contacted the police.
Following the discovery of Barsanti’s body and the review of the Ring camera footage, officers located Paramore and placed him under surveillance.
"We maintained a visual on the individual from the time we identified him as a person of interest, monitored his movements, and eventually approached him on the street to place him in custody for an unrelated charge," Bedford Police Chief Bobby LaPenna said.
Police charged him with murder.
The motive for the crime remains unclear and the medical examiner has not yet released Barsanti’s cause of death, but police say her family indicated she appeared to have been struck with an unknown object.

Lee Jordan Murrow, 32, was fatally shot in Waco, TX.
Kimisha Denise Mathis, 39, was arrested.
Murrow's body was discovered along the Brazos River in Waco in Cameron Park. Authorities were called to the scene after the body was found in the river.
Mathis admitted to luring Murrow out of his home on May 14, 2023. An affidavit reveals that a second, yet-to-be-arrested suspect, whose name has been redacted from the document, was hiding in the trunk of a car armed with a handgun. Once Murrow entered the vehicle, a physical altercation ensued, and the armed suspect fatally shot him.
After the murder, Mathis and the second suspect initially discarded Murrow’s body. They later returned, placed the body in the trunk of a vehicle, and transported it to Cameron Park in Waco, where they discarded it again.
The second suspect remains at large.
In a related context, KWTX archives indicate that Murrow was indicted by a grand jury in December 2023 for the death of 81-year-old Dorothy Small and injuries to her grandchild. This incident occurred after Murrow collided with their car while driving at 116 mph in the 1000 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd in Waco on May 18, resulting in charges of manslaughter and aggravated assault against him.

Ryan Patrick Harding, 32, was fatally shot in Fort Wayne, IN.
28-year-old Tyshawn Morris was arrested on preliminary charges of murder and attempted murder.
The suspect apparently resorted to gunfire after being "disrespected."
Officers responded to a home around 5 a.m. after receiving reports of a shooting. Upon arrival, they found two men inside the home with gunshot wounds; one man was dead, and the other was wounded.
The incident occurred during a watch party for a professional fight hosted by the homeowner. Although the homeowner did not witness the shooting, he later provided detectives with video footage of the altercation, identifying Morris as the shooter. According to the probable cause affidavit, the video showed Morris arguing with one of the victims.
Morris turned himself in to the police later that morning and recounted the events. He stated that everyone at the party was drinking and having a good time until an argument erupted between him and the surviving victim, who Morris claimed had disrespected him.
Morris attempted to leave the argument and wait for his ride outside, where he continued venting to a woman. The victim allegedly followed him outside and punched him in the face, prompting Morris to pull out his gun and fire 3 to 4 shots.
Morris claimed he was not trying to kill anyone and was aiming low. The gunfire resulted in one man being grazed by a bullet and another being fatally shot. The surviving victim told officers he tried to slap the gun away from Morris and ran away upon realizing he had been shot, hearing more shots as he fled. The second victim was found lying on the floor and was pronounced dead at the scene. [source]

White-on-black homicides
FBI statistics show that more than 50 percent of homicides in the USA are committed by blacks, even though blacks only make up about 13 percent of the country’s population [FBI: Crime in the U.S. 2019 • Tables • Table 43]. In 2021, for example, 51.3 percent of “Murder and nonnegligent manslaughter” incidents were attributed to black offenders.
Overall, FBI data suggest blacks are over thirteen times more likely to kill whites than vice versa.
American Renaissance Editor Jared Taylor, citing data based on 2021 FBI statistics assembled by anonymous researcher Datahazard, reports a black-male offender homicide rate of 64.4 per 100,000. The equivalent figure for white-male offenders is 3.5 per 100,000 [A Harsh New Light on Race and Murder, Amren.com, March 24, 2023].
That is, the black-male offender homicide rate is 18.4 times higher than the white-male offender homicide rate.
We found six white-on-black homicides reported in June, 2024.
