Bianca Davis was shot and killed after police sprayed mace into a crowd after reports of a fight--police said officers fired no shots; two witnesses filed reports stating that police did fire shots, including one witness who said he saw an officer shoot Davis by mistake. The fight broke out at a party held at The Casino Lounge on Main Highway. After officers on the scene sprayed mace into the crowd, "the first shots rang out," St. Martinville Police Chief Calder Hebert said. Herbert denied that any of his officers fired shots during the gunfire that left former Ragin' Cajuns basketball star Bianca Davis dead. The next day, two people filed reports saying that an officer fired shots. A security guard at the lounge, Dequincy Lewis, said that he saw a St. Martinville police officer fire the shot that hit Davis. "He wasn't aiming to shoot at anybody," Lewis said Monday. "(He came) around the corner shooting wildly thinking he was shooting at the people shooting at that truck, but he made a mistake and hit that girl." Police arrested twin brothers in connection with Davis's shooting; Herbert said they didn't have any physical evidence linking Jakil or Jamir Sophus, but relied on witness statements to connect the brothers to Davis' death.

Harrell allegedly told police he was suicidal and asked to speak with his mother during the negotiations, but officials said they generally do not allow communication with family during standoff situations. Harrell reportedly remained armed throughout the standoff, but at no time did he point the weapon at law enforcement, Scott said.

Initially believing Harrell had surrendered, they screamed in horror when they learned he'd been shot--with some accusing police of shooting him. Scott reiterated that the gunshot wound was self inflicted. Harrell was rushed to the hospital where he later died.

Passenger Sloan McDow and driver Brandon Bigner died after a high speed police chase when their vehicle crashed into an 18-wheeler. The pursuit started just after midnight in Covington when a trooper stopped a Chevrolet Cobalt for going more than 100 mph in a 55 mph zone on US 190 near the intersection of Louisiana 1077. The driver, a 14-year-old boy, was being interviewed outside the car when the front seat passenger, later identified as Bigner, allegedly jumped over the center console into the driver's seat and took off. The trooper put the original driver into his patrol car and radioed for backup. The trooper then followed the speeding Cobalt. Approximately two miles west of the initial traffic stop, the trooper arrived at the scene of the crash. Investigators said the car swerved completely across the eastbound lane of US 190 onto the eastbound shoulder, then overcorrected to the right and into the path of an oncoming 18 wheeler. The front of the 18 wheeler hit the left side of the Cobalt, sending Bigner flying from the car, resulting in severe injuries from which he later died. Sitting in the backseat was Sloan McDow, who died at the scene.

"Before he even got close to this individual, he turned off of Northside Drive and crashed." The family questions this account due to witnesses who contradict the police statements.
