John Terzani

Date of the incident: 8/20/2013

Hopewell Junction, Dutchess, NY
Carpenter Road and the Taconic State Parkway

A late-evening domestic dispute in which Terzani flourished a handgun developed into a five-hour manhunt, involving multiple jurisdictions and closure of several roads. After extended negotiations Terzani appeared on the threshold of his own house and pointed his gun at police. A state trooper fatally shot him.
