On January 16, 2025, 56-year-old Stacy L. Pride was shot and killed on the fifth floor of Alliance Towers, a residential building at 350 S. Arch Avenue in Alliance, Ohio. Responding officers arrived after a 911 call reporting gunfire and found Pride with gunshot wounds. A man identified as 63-year-old Mason French, a resident of the building and Pride’s reported partner, was still armed in the hallway when officers encountered him; two of the four officers on scene fired and French was shot and killed at the scene.

The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation is overseeing the probe. French had a prior conviction in 2006 for felonious assault with a firearm, in which he shot his daughter’s boyfriend; he served a sentence and was later released. Body-camera footage and 911 recordings are expected to be released after Pride’s family reviews the footage; the two officers who fired have been placed on administrative leave. Investigators are looking into whether there were prior signs of conflict between Pride and French.

If anyone knew Stacy Pride, Mason French, or observed activity at Alliance Towers on January 16, 2025, what did you see or hear that might help clarify what happened?
