How they died
Deadly force
Sgt. Bradley Moore and Cpl. Keith May shot and killed Matthew S. Marsh after he reportedly shot May in the abdomen and Moore in the shoulder during a drug search at a Cape Girardeau hotel. The officers responded at about 8:30 p.m. to reported drug activity in a room at a Super 8 off Interstate 55. The officers knocked on the door and started talking to Marsh and a woman, the room's occupants. Marsh reportedly went back into the room, got a gun and started shooting at the officers, who returned fire, killing Marsh. The woman was charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia with intent to distribute methamphetamine.
