Memphis, Tennessee — On March 18, 2023, Shelby County Sheriff’s Office Deputies Jaime Higgins and Terenzo Radcliff pulled over 43-year-old Melissa Horton after receiving information from the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office that she had attempted to shoot her fiancé. The deputies commanded Horton to get out of her car but instead she lifted a shotgun and pointed it toward Deputy Higgins. The deputies fired and Horton died of gunshot injuries.

LAKE FOREST, Calif. - The Orange County Sheriff's Department released body camera footage from an August shooting, in which deputies shot at a man accused of stabbing two women in a Lake Forest apartment complex.

It happened back on Aug. 20. Officials were called out to an apartment in the 21000 block of Osterman Road just after 12:15 p.m., after a caller told dispatch that they saw a woman who had been stabbed.

When deputies got there, they found the woman with stab wounds, and said that another woman, the first victim's sister, and the suspect, believed to be the two women's brother, were back in the apartment.

"With another possible victim inside the apartment, deputies decided to make entry," said OCSD Sheriff Michael Woodroof in a video press release. "Deputies encountered the suspect inside the apartment and gave commands for the suspect to drop the knife. The suspect did not comply with the deputies' commands."

Body camera footage shared in the release showed footage from two deputies. Deputies opened the apartment door, and shot at the suspect on the other side of the entrance hallway seconds later. Screenshots from the video appear to show the man with something in his hands, which the OCSD said was a knife. The department also shared photos of two knives — a folding pocket knife and a chef's knife — recovered from the suspect.

The man was then handcuffed while deputies gave him first aid. Other deputies clearing the apartment found the other woman in the apartment bathroom. She had been stabbed multiple times and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The suspect was brought to the hospital and arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder. The first sister is expected to survive.

Neither the victims or the suspect were identified in Tuesday's press release. The full release can be found here.
