On the morning of March 23, 2014, 73-year-old Gail Dean Fairless, a White male, was fatally shot by four Oklahoma City police officers after a domestic disturbance call at a northwest-side residence. Officers David Hollis II, Jeff Coffey, Jonathan Davis, and Anthony Pundsack confronted Fairless, whom they described as suicidal and armed. Police say they ordered him away from the firearm; officers report Fairless then grabbed the gun and pointed it at them, and all four discharged their weapons.

Fairless was struck and died at the scene. The officers, who had between five and 12 years of service, were placed on paid administrative leave while internal and criminal reviews proceeded. The case was turned over to the Oklahoma County District Attorney’s Office for review; no charges were filed after the DA reviewed the shooting.

Is there anyone who knew Fairless or who was in that neighborhood that morning and can add details about what happened before officers arrived?
