Christopher Giles incident[]
In the early hours of January 26th 2018 Christopher Giles broke into the home of Meg and Gavin brandishing a handgun, and based on notes left on Giles' phone he harboured a grudge against Gavin and intended to act upon it. Meg and Gavin were both unharmed in the incident, hiding in a closet and dialling 911, with Giles leaving their home once the police arrived. In the immediate aftermath, Giles opened fire on the officers at the scene, being shot dead in the process.
