On the afternoon of May 13, 2014, a disturbance at A & A West Mini Storage on West Sunshine Street in Springfield, Missouri ended with the facility’s resident manager, 50-year-old Tracey Liniger, dead from gunfire. Two men who were on the property called 911 saying a woman was shooting at them and fled to a nearby radio station for help. Officers from the Springfield Police Department and the Greene County Sheriff’s Office established a perimeter after Liniger retreated into the storage office and refused commands to leave.

When she emerged and pointed a handgun at officers, four law enforcement personnel — Springfield officers Jason Bohannon and Marc Stevens and Greene County Deputy Justin Adamson and Sergeant Robert Pounds — fired on Liniger. She was struck and pronounced dead at the scene. Liniger’s daughter told reporters her mother had been battling cancer for four years and suggested the illness may have affected her mental state. All four officers were placed on paid administrative leave while investigators examined the use of force.

If anyone has information about what led up to the shooting at the storage facility, please share what you know.
