Police Shooting of Todd Smith

On June 14, 2025, in the 15800 block of East Arkansas Drive. Aurora Police got a report that a husband and wife had been arguing. The couple separated, and the husband, identified as 58-year-old Todd Patrick Smith, went to the garage. Two officers approached Smith in the garage. Then one of the officers walked around the house to the front door while the other officer spoke with Smith for a couple of minutes. "I'm done," Smith says and then he walks to a tool box and picks up a gun, which he holds in one outstretched open hand. The officer draws his weapon and tells Smith five times to drop the gun. Smith swings the gun around in the direction of the officer, which is when the officer shoots twice, hitting Smith in the chest. Smith falls to the ground. The officer tells Smith several times to drop the gun before he drops it and the officers render medical aid. Smith was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. The next day, he died. The officer who fired the shots was put on paid leave but has since returned to duty.
