A Pawtucket afternoon dispute on May 5, 2025, ended in fatal gunfire at an Arch Street residence. At about 2:30 p.m., 28-year-old Brandon Kjenstand and a 25-year-old woman were shot and taken to a local hospital; Kjenstand died of his wounds, and the woman was reported in stable condition. Family said Kjenstand was protecting his wife and their three-year-old son when he was killed.

Authorities arrested 37-year-old Eric Peterson, a first-floor resident of the same building, on charges including first-degree murder, multiple counts related to firearm use during a crime of violence, felony assault counts, possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, and carrying a pistol without a license.

Kjenstand was remembered as a devoted father to two young sons and an employee of Teknor Apex for five years. Does anyone have information about the dispute between the tenants or the events on Arch Street that afternoon?
