Frank Charles Denzinger was a 32-year-old deputy with the Floyd County Sheriff’s Department who was killed while responding to a domestic disturbance call in Georgetown, Indiana, in 2007. He and his partner, Sergeant Joel White, were speaking with the mother in the driveway when the mother’s 15-year-old son, Tyler Dumstorf, fired from an upstairs window with a high-powered military-style rifle. Both officers were struck; Denzinger was critically wounded, taken to a hospital in Louisville, Kentucky, and died of his injuries. Sergeant White was seriously wounded but survived.

After the shooting, a standoff around the home ended hours later when authorities found Tyler Dumstorf dead inside the residence from an apparent self-inflicted wound. Denzinger had served with the Floyd County Sheriff’s Office for four years and is described as a husband, father, son, and brother.

Did anyone in the area have contact with Officer Denzinger or information about the incident that could add detail to the timeline?
