Henry Larry Caraballo was 43 and a patrol officer with the Pearson Police Department when he was killed on the night of August 12, 1990. While on patrol with his partner, Officer Henry Spivey, the two followed a vehicle that had left a convenience store and stopped it on Highway 441. As Caraballo approached the driver’s side, a .38 caliber revolver was fired, striking him in the cheek and killing him.

The suspect fled and was pursued to a house on Walker Street in Douglas, Georgia. A confrontation there resulted in the suspect being shot and killed; investigators later learned he had been wanted on other serious charges, including rape. Caraballo, a Navy veteran, was survived by his wife, daughter, mother, and two sisters.

What additional details about the stop, the pursuit, or the suspect are still missing that might help clarify what happened that night?
