What began as an ordinary Thursday evening ended in heartbreak for a Texas family after 35-year-old Katrina Wheeler was shot and killed in a Walmart parking lot in Seguin.

Police say officers responded to reports of gunfire shortly before 5 p.m. at the Walmart on South Highway 123 Bypass. When they arrived, they found Katrina suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Despite emergency efforts, she was pronounced dead at the scene.

A 37-year-old man was also injured in the shooting and was airlifted to a San Antonio hospital for treatment.

Authorities later identified Katrina’s husband, 42-year-old John Wheeler, as the suspect. Investigators say he left the area before officers arrived but was later located outside the city by the New Berlin Marshal’s Office. Following a pursuit, he was taken into custody without incident.

The Walmart was closed as detectives processed the scene and interviewed witnesses.

A 15-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Dolci was found dead after being left alone and barricaded inside a downstairs toilet while suffering from multiple serious illnesses.

RSPCA inspectors discovered the heartbreaking scene at a property in Dawlish after receiving reports of concerns about the dog’s welfare.

According to investigators, owner Louise Cleave, 39, admitted she had isolated Dolci in the toilet when the elderly dog became too weak. She later told inspectors she was afraid to check whether the dog had died and claimed she could not afford veterinary treatment.

When inspectors arrived, they found the toilet door blocked by furniture and flooring materials. Inside, Dolci was lying lifeless in her bed.

A veterinary examination revealed the dog had been suffering from several untreated medical conditions, including kidney disease, a severe skin disorder, and pyometra — a potentially fatal infection of the womb.

Experts concluded Dolci died from septicaemia, septic shock, and kidney failure after being left without urgent medical attention. They also stated the dog would have suffered significant pain, distress, and mental anguish while confined alone for days.

A post-mortem examination found Dolci severely underweight, weighing just 10 kilograms, with her ribs, spine, and hip bones visibly protruding. Veterinarians described the amount of infected fluid caused by the untreated pyometra — approximately two litres — as “astonishing.”

Cleave admitted causing unnecessary suffering by failing to provide proper veterinary care.

She was sentenced to 12 weeks in prison, suspended for 12 months, ordered to complete 20 rehabilitation activity days, and must pay £528 in costs.

The court also imposed a lifetime ban on her owning or caring for animals, with no opportunity to appeal the disqualification for at least 10 years.

🐾 Rest in peace, Dolci.

A 23-year-old Minneapolis woman is now facing serious felony charges after prosecutors say a planned robbery turned deadly and left a man shot to death inside a vacant Northside home.

According to court documents, Makeysa Nysa Morgan has been charged with first-degree aggravated robbery and aiding an offender after the fact in connection with the November 14, 2023 homicide near the 3700 block of Newton Avenue North.

Investigators say the victim had been communicating through Facebook Messenger about purchasing marijuana before being directed to a vacant house where prosecutors allege a robbery had been planned.

Court records claim Morgan, along with co-defendant Derrick Taylor and another accomplice, believed the victim would be carrying marijuana, cash, or both.

Authorities say the victim was led upstairs inside the home, unaware that two armed men were allegedly hiding inside a closet waiting for him.

According to the complaint, the victim became suspicious and opened the closet door before Taylor allegedly opened fire. The victim suffered eight gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. The medical examiner later ruled the death a homicide.

Prosecutors allege Morgan stayed inside the getaway vehicle during the setup and later drove Taylor away from the scene after he allegedly ran from the house carrying a gun.

Surveillance footage reportedly captured the suspect vehicle leaving the area and later picking up another individual tied to the case.

Court documents further state Morgan admitted during questioning that she was present during the incident and acknowledged driving the vehicle after the shooting.

Morgan remains in custody with bail set at $500,000 as court proceedings continue.

A Kentucky homicide suspect accused of carrying out a gruesome killing that shocked Louisville has been shot dead during an officer-involved shooting after a tense armed standoff with police.

Authorities say Michael Hristov was wanted in connection with the brutal murder of Michael Howard, an unhoused man whose dismembered and mutilated remains were discovered in a homeless encampment near I-65 on December 26, 2025.

Investigators later uncovered a chilling twist — just days before the killing, Hristov allegedly posted on Reddit warning about a “possible serial killer in Louisville” targeting unhoused people and leaving satanic symbols near bodies. Police say the disturbing post had actually been written by Hristov himself.

Detectives also connected him to the Christmas Day stabbing of another homeless man who survived the attack. During a search of Hristov’s home, officers reportedly found a backpack containing the victim’s missing toe along with blood evidence linked to the crime scene.

According to investigators, Hristov had an obsession with serial killers, a history of animal torture, admiration for mass shooters, and had allegedly spoken about wanting to “hunt” homeless people.

When officers arrived at his home, police say Hristov opened fire from inside the residence before calling dispatch himself, stating he was armed and wanted officers to kill him.

After a 20-minute standoff, Hristov reportedly exited the home wearing a ballistic vest and helmet while still armed. Officers ordered him to drop his weapon, but when he refused, at least one officer opened fire, killing him at the scene.

The case has left many in Louisville horrified over the violence and the disturbing details uncovered during the investigation.

Newly released CCTV footage has revealed the final moments of 21-year-old Courtney Angus before she was brutally murdered by Michael Doherty, a man she had met at a bar just hours before her death.

Doherty, 38, appeared before Leeds Crown Court on Thursday, May 28, where he was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 33 years after admitting to murdering, sexually assaulting, and mutilating Courtney.

Police say the horrific attack happened after Courtney told Doherty she was not interested in pursuing a relationship with him.

Later that same day, officers responding to a robbery report in Dewsbury town centre confronted Doherty armed with a knife. He allegedly threatened police and attempted to enter a nearby pub before being subdued by Taser officers.

During the arrest, Doherty reportedly told officers he had killed someone and that a body could be found inside his home.

Courtney’s body was later discovered at the address. A forensic examination confirmed she had been strangled and suffered injuries consistent with a serious sexual assault.

Detectives described Doherty as “a very dangerous man,” pointing to both the murder and the violent threats he made toward officers during his arrest.

In a heartbreaking statement, Courtney’s family said:

“The loss of Courtney has changed us all and we still cannot understand why she was so cruelly and suddenly taken from us.

Courtney was such a loving and vibrant young woman with her whole life ahead of her. She was a huge part of this family, and she will never be replaced.”

🕊️ Rest in peace, Courtney Angus.
