Recently, Fond du Lac County District Attorney Eric Toney issued his decision regarding the death of Kyle P.J. Massie, which occurred on October 14, 2023, in the City of Fond du Lac, Wis. The district attorney determined there will be no criminal charges for involved law enforcement. The incident happened last October near Western Avenue where a woman said she had been held at gunpoint. Gunfire was exchanged between sheriff’s deputy Blaine Evans and the suspect Kyle Massie. According to the report Massie died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Evans was not injured, but his K9 Iro was shot and injured and has since recovered. Toney says the investigation found that deputy Evans fired 45 rounds, with two bullets striking Massie causing non life-threatening injuries. Massie fired 11 rounds, with five rounds striking K9 Iro, five rounds fired toward deputy Evans, and one self-inflicted wound to his head. The Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation this week released squad car video from the incident.
