Casey Reid Gabbard, 43, was shot and killed at a Highland Street residence in Maysville, Missouri, on August 27, 2020. He was found unresponsive with a gunshot wound to the chest, taken to Cameron Regional Medical Center, and later pronounced dead. Gabbard had a background as a childhood state wrestling champion and worked in construction.

DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office detectives, with help from the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Division of Drug and Crime Control, opened a homicide investigation that focused on a Maysville resident named Brian Graham. Authorities said Graham fled the scene in a silver or gray 2010 Lincoln MKZ; prosecutors filed charges against him on August 28, 2020, including second-degree murder and armed criminal action, and an arrest warrant was issued while he was described as armed and dangerous.

Anyone who knew Casey or saw the vehicle or suspect in late August 2020 is asked to share information with local law enforcement.
