On February 3, 2021, 72-year-old Ray Leonard Engelking was killed at his Kewaskum, Wisconsin, residence while defending his wife from an intruder. Family statements say Engelking was fatally shot during a violent struggle after the assailant forced his way into the home and assaulted Deborah Engelking. The intruder, described as unknown to the family, was also killed; reports indicate the assailant used the family’s own weapons during the episode.

The Washington County Sheriff’s Department investigated what the family called a wider rampage that day. The Engelking family released a statement thanking law enforcement, offering condolences to other affected families, and emphasizing Ray’s 72 years of life rather than the last moments. Does anyone have information about the events in Kewaskum on February 3, 2021, or knew the Engelking family?
