Grand Junction police fatally shot Patti Wilson, a transgender woman, firing into her fleeing car
On June 19, 2026, two Grand Junction, Colorado police officers responding to a report of a person with a knife at a Dairy Queen fired roughly 11 shots at Patti Wilson, a 31-year-old transgender woman, striking her twice as she drove away and killing her. Her fleeing vehicle then struck multiple other cars, injuring another person and overturning one. The department later identified the officers as Zachary Diaz and Tim Long, who were placed on paid administrative leave pending an independent 21st Judicial District investigation.
