John Randall Veach, 39, was killed on December 30, 2015, in the parking lot of a Kum & Go gas station in Rawlins, Wyoming, following an encounter with Rawlins Police officers. Accounts in court filings and news coverage say officers approached his pickup after a report that he was attempting to sell marijuana. As the stop unfolded on a cold winter night, those accounts state Veach tried to drive away and two officers, Sgt. Jared Frakes and Officer Joe Balestrieri, opened fire. Veach was transported by ambulance but did not survive.

A state criminal review concluded the shooting was justified and the officers were not charged. Veach’s family and estate subsequently filed a federal civil rights lawsuit alleging he was an unarmed man whose constitutional rights were violated and pointing to failures in training, supervision, and discipline. The city and officers disputed those claims; the civil case later resolved with a reported settlement.

Did anyone witness the interaction at the Kum & Go that night or have information about what led up to the encounter?
