Summary via Racine County District Attorney (Abridged):
"On May 21, 2023, at 22:10, Mt. Pleasant Police were dispatched to a home on
Willow Road to a report of shots fired and family trouble. Upon arrival, officers learned from family members that Timothy Burgess, dob 9/19/84, and his wife, LLB, were arguing
in the kitchen. LLB ran outside of the house to the end of the driveway and Burgess
followed, armed with a handgun. Burgess raised the gun and pointed it at LLB as she ran
and fired multiple times in LLB’s direction. LLB screamed and ran into the backyard and
several more shots were heard. Burgess left the house in a green Range Rover listed to
LLB, after saying he was going to his mother’s house. Two .40 caliber shell casings and
an unspent round were found outside the house and there were two bullet holes in another
vehicle parked in the driveway and fresh damage to the siding on the house.
Following the incident on Willow Road, a bulletin went out to Racine County Law
Enforcement to be on the look out for Burgess and the green Range Rover with its specific
license plate. Officers were warned that Burgess was believed to be armed with a
handgun. Flock cameras began locating the Range Rover via license plate within the City
of Racine.
At 23:57, Officer Golden from the Racine Police Department located the Range
Rover traveling westbound on 6th Street. Officer Golden was able to get behind the vehicle
as it drove behind an apartment building on Howland Avenue. Officer Golden activated
his emergency lights and siren and as soon as the Range Rover came to a stop, the
driver’s door came open and Burgess immediately fled on foot. Officer Golden gave chase
and a citizen advised him that Burgess had run through a yard and was armed with a gun.
A second citizen advised officer Golden that Burgess had gone into another yard and
jumped over a fence that led to Clayton Park, in the City and County of Racine. Officer
Golden lost sight of Burgess after he made it to the park...
...During this time, Investigator Lauer and other officers could see movement in the
overgrown grass. Burgess would at times respond to officers. Burgess would show one
hand at a time, but never both of his hands at the same time. Burgess stood up for a brief
period of time but then sat back down hiding himself. Burgess told officers that his leg
was broken, so Investigator Lauer then asked him to crawl out of the grass. Burgess also
stated that his arm was broken, only raising his left hand but not his right hand. He
expressed a fear of the dog and even briefly made movements towards revealing himself,
only to retreat back into the weeds. Despite receiving constant commands, persuasive
appeals, and even the threat of a K9, Burgess persistently refused to comply with the
officers' orders and did not cooperate in being safely taken into custody.
At 00:25, Sergeant Sell, from RPD, called out that he was coming to the scene
with a ballistic shield so that a plan for a safe approach to Burgess could be made. An
Initial Approach Team made up of RPD officers, in the shape of a diamond, was the plan
for the approach. Sergeant Sell was carrying the ballistic shield at the top of the diamond,
Officer Vela carried a duty rifle on the left, Officer Trousil carried his duty rifle on the right,
and Officer Golden carrying a handgun was prepared for handcuffing at the bottom of the
diamond. Sturtevant Police Department (SVPD) K9 handler Officer Purtee was also lined up to accompany the Initial Approach Team toward Burgess with her K9 partner and
carrying her handgun.
This Initial Approach Team made its way towards Burgess in the brush, continuing
to shout commands. When the Team was within 10-15 feet of Burgess, shots began firing.
A muzzle flash can be seen from the area where Burgess was and multiple officers
discharged their weapons. At 00:29, officers called out to dispatch that shots were fired.
The five members of the approach team all fell back into one another and were all on the
ground for a short time. All five officers were able to get back up and retreat to a place of
cover. At 00:30, all officers were accounted for and uninjured. Burgess remained in the
brush line and was unresponsive to officers who continued calling out to him.
The RPD Drone Operator was still on scene with the drone and could see that
Burgess had gone from sitting up to laying down and was not moving. It was believed that
Burgess had been struck by gunfire at this point, but his right hand still could not be seen.
No attempt to approach Burgess was made until SWAT and an armored vehicle were on
scene to provide protection for officers as they approached. Once contact was made with
Burgess, it was discovered that Burgess had succumbed to his injuries. The Wisconsin
Department of Criminal Investigations (DCI) was contacted and took over the
investigation."
