Officer Brian Ronald Kinsey, 27, was fatally shot while on duty on October 22, 1997. Kinsey, a five-year veteran of the Jackson Police Department, and his rookie partner were responding to a domestic disturbance when Kinsey approached the residence and was struck by shotgun fire. After he fell, the gunman approached and shot him again. The partner returned fire but did not hit the suspect.

The suspect retreated into the home and a two-hour standoff followed. Officers used tear gas to force the suspect out; when he emerged and aimed at officers, he was shot and killed by police. Kinsey had received multiple honors during his service and was survived by his wife and daughter.

If anyone has information about Officer Kinsey, his service that night, or remembers the incident, please share what you know.
