Taylor Long was 33 when he was shot dead on April 3, 2023, in Terre Haute, Indiana. His wife, Denia Long, called 911 from their vehicle near a liquor store and said she had accidentally shot him while moving a handgun. Officers found Taylor unresponsive in the front seat; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

The case was investigated for more than a year. A witness who was on the phone with Denia at the time later told investigators the couple argued just before Taylor was shot and that they heard Taylor exclaim he had been shot. Ballistics testing reported that the handgun would not have fired without the trigger being pulled. Witnesses also told detectives Denia had been violent with Taylor in the past. In May 2024, after the investigation, Denia Long was arrested and charged with murder and made an initial court appearance.

If anyone knew Taylor or has information about what happened that day, please come forward.
