Deputies with the Shelby County Sheriff's Office conducted a welfare check at the Harlan home around 4:30 a.m. on March 6 after a caller reported his friend had posted a 'concerning message' on social media. The message showed an arm with blood around it. When the deputy arrived, he found P., 36, of Harlan, intoxicated in his garage while there appeared to be blood in the snow on the driveway. P. was holding a rifle and refused to put it down. After half an hour of negotiations, P. pointed his rifle at the deputy, and another deputy shot and killed him. Deputies later found the body of P.'s girlfriend, A. M., 31, who had been shot five times in the back and legs, stripped of her clothes, washed and placed in the trunk area of an SUV. crime Indianola Daycare Provider Charged with Infant's Murder 2025-04-23 An Indianola woman, M.
