Douglas A. German, 32, was one of four people killed in a shooting spree that began July 26–27, 2019, in Chippewa County, Wisconsin, and culminated July 28, 2019, when deputies discovered multiple victims at a Lafayette townhome. Douglas and his 8-year-old nephew, Calvin Harris, were each struck twice by gunfire. Their 66-year-old mother, Bridget German, was shot five times in the head.

Authorities identified Ritchie German Jr. as the person who carried out the attacks. Investigators say he used a revolver in the killings at the family home, then drove about nine miles to Lake Hallie where another victim, 24-year-old Laile Vang, was shot with a shotgun and her parents were injured. All of the victims at the family home had single gunshot wounds to the head. No clear motive has been determined.

Did anyone in the area know Douglas, his family, or details about Ritchie German Jr.s living arrangements that might help explain what happened?
