Deputy Sheriff Allen Morris Bares Jr., a 15-year law enforcement veteran in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana, was killed in the line of duty after an encounter with two people fleeing a burglary on the same street. The two had been in a stolen vehicle when they crossed paths with law enforcement; during that encounter Deputy Bares was fatally wounded.

Authorities arrested two suspects in connection with the killing and charged them with first-degree murder, unauthorized use of an automobile, and the burglary linked to the events that night. The shootings and subsequent investigation shook the local community and prompted a rapid response from law enforcement.
