Todd Anthony Gerleman, 56, was shot and killed on December 21, 2020, in St. Paul after going with a female friend to the home of her boyfriend on the 100 block of Larpenteur Avenue West. The woman had been in the relationship for about two weeks and had experienced possessive and abusive behavior from the boyfriend. When the pair arrived, the boyfriend assaulted his girlfriend, pulling her hair and punching her.

He then saw Gerleman sitting in the car, fired a shot that missed the girlfriend and struck Gerleman in the arm, then moved to the passenger side and shot Gerleman in the face at point-blank range. The woman escaped and called 911 from a nearby gas station. The shooting was counted as the 33rd homicide in St. Paul for 2020.
