On the morning of March 31, 1989, 36-year-old Maine State Police Detective Giles R. Landry was killed while investigating a child abuse report at a mobile home on Roger Sumner Road in Leeds, Maine. Landry, a 13-year veteran of the force, was sitting in his unmarked cruiser with a woman connected to the case when her boyfriend, 36-year-old David Grover, approached and fired a .44 caliber rifle through the rear window.

Landry was struck and killed instantly; the woman in the passenger seat was also fatally shot. Grover then turned the rifle on himself and died at the scene, leaving investigators to conclude a murder-suicide with Grover as the sole perpetrator. The shootings profoundly affected the Maine law enforcement community.

Did anyone in the Leeds area at the time have information about the mobile home or those involved?
