Officer Gregory Burke and Sgt. Jack Bogema, along with two child protective services workers went to Xianqing Cao's home to investigate allegations that Cao had sexually assaulted his two stepdaughters. The officers shot and killed Cao when he allegedly shot and wounded Burke in the leg. Cao had reportedly been arrested in December during a disturbance outside the White House, after Secret Service agents found three .22-caliber handguns in the trunk of his car. Portage police said they knew nothing of the arrest before arriving at Cao's house.
