3 dead, 3 critically injured in family-related shooting at ice rink in Pawtucket
PAWTUCKET, R.I. — Three people, including the suspected gunman, were killed and three others were injured during a shooting Monday afternoon at the Dennis M. Lynch Arena, according to Pawtucket Police Chief Tina Goncalves.
The gunfire erupted inside the arena while a high school boys’ hockey game was underway, sending players, students, and families scrambling for safety.
The rink, located on Andrew D. Ferland Way, was hosting a co-op matchup that had drawn numerous spectators at the time of the incident.
Chief Goncalves told reporters that the shooting appears to have stemmed from a “family dispute.”
Preliminary investigative findings indicate the suspect allegedly shot his wife and three of his children before turning the firearm on himself.
Authorities confirmed that three individuals, including the shooter, died as a result of the incident.
Three additional victims were transported to local hospitals for treatment. Their medical conditions have not yet been publicly disclosed.
Earlier in the day, the Pawtucket Mayor’s Office stated that a young girl was among those killed and confirmed that multiple individuals had been hospitalized.
Police have emphasized that the suspect is deceased and that there is no ongoing threat to the public. Investigators are not seeking any additional suspects.
The shooting occurred during a 2:00 p.m. game involving local co-op high school teams, drawing athletes, coaches, and family members to the facility.
Witness video captured chaotic scenes as individuals fled the rink following the sound of gunfire.
An employee at a nearby Walgreens on Andrew D. Ferland Way reported that several people ran into the store in a state of panic, stating that shots had been fired inside the arena.
Store management reportedly closed the pharmacy and evacuated staff while contacting 911. Some individuals sheltered inside the building until law enforcement secured the area.
Police responded rapidly and established control of the scene as part of a significant law enforcement presence.
Authorities have not yet released the names of the deceased or injured victims pending notification of next of kin.
The investigation remains active and ongoing as detectives work to determine the full sequence of events and confirm all circumstances surrounding the shooting. State and local officials are expected to provide additional updates as more information becomes available.

Kayla Noel Day, girlfriend of Luke Daley Arrested in Connection to the Disappearance of Nancy Guthrie
TUCSON, Ariz. — Developments continue in the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, as law enforcement activity and related arrests have drawn increased public attention.
Arrest of Kayla Noel Day
According to publicly available jail records, Kayla Noel Day was arrested late on the evening of February 12, 2026, at approximately 11:00 p.m.
She is currently listed as being held in the Pima County Jail.
As of this writing, official booking details regarding specific charges have not been publicly confirmed.
Day is identified as the girlfriend of Luke Anthony Daley, who was detained the following day, February 13, 2026, during a SWAT operation at a residence in the 6200 block of North Placita de Rojelio in Tucson.
Public records indicate that Day has prior arrests dating back to 2011, including cases involving burglary, drug-related offenses, and stolen property.
Court documentation shows multiple prior law enforcement contacts over the past decade. Authorities have not stated whether her current detention is directly connected to the Nancy Guthrie investigation.
SWAT Operation and Vehicle Towing
On February 13, a significant law enforcement operation unfolded at a residence believed to be associated with Luke Anthony Daley, 37. The operation involved SWAT personnel and resulted in multiple individuals being detained. Daley’s brother, Matthew Daley, 39, was also reportedly detained at the scene.
The residence is publicly listed as being owned by Mary C. Daley. Officials have not confirmed whether any arrests stemming from that operation are directly tied to the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie.
During and after the operation, vehicles connected to the property were towed. A vehicle with apparent front-end damage had been observed parked in the driveway prior to its removal. Authorities later towed a second vehicle from the same residence.
Around the same timeframe, FBI agents stopped and processed a silver Range Rover approximately two miles from Nancy Guthrie’s residence. The vehicle was later towed after agents examined its contents. Public vehicle records indicate the Range Rover was reportedly sold on February 13, 2026. Federal authorities have not confirmed whether the vehicle is directly connected to the disappearance, stating only that investigative leads are being pursued.
DNA Evidence and Forensic Testing
Sheriff Chris Nanos of the Pima County Sheriff’s Department addressed media reports suggesting the abduction may have stemmed from a burglary.
He stated:
“That did not come from us. We have no idea where that information originated, and even though that may be one of many possibilities, we would never speculate publicly. We will allow the evidence to guide us to a motive.”
Gloves discovered approximately two miles from the Guthrie residence were collected and shipped overnight on February 12 to a private forensic laboratory in Florida, where they arrived February 13 for analysis.
Preliminary DNA results were received February 14 by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Officials are awaiting final quality control confirmation before entering an unidentified male DNA profile into CODIS, the Bureau’s national Combined DNA Index System database. The upload process typically takes approximately 24 hours once verification is complete.
Investigators collected approximately 16 gloves in total from areas near the residence. Most were determined to belong to volunteer searchers. However, one glove reportedly containing an unidentified male DNA profile appeared distinct and consistent with gloves worn by a masked individual captured in surveillance footage the night of Nancy’s disappearance.
The FBI has confirmed that DNA recovered from Nancy Guthrie’s property does not match her or individuals known to be in close contact with her. The origin of the DNA remains under investigation.
Surveillance Footage and Additional Evidence
The FBI released surveillance video from Nancy’s Nest doorbell camera showing a masked individual wearing nitrile gloves approaching her home the evening she disappeared. The individual appeared to inspect the camera and attempt to obscure its view with flowers.
Because there was no paid Nest subscription associated with the account, investigators reportedly worked with Google to retrieve stored footage from server backups.
A forensic sketch was later produced by Lois Gibson of Houston based on the limited facial features visible in the footage. Only portions of the eyes and partial facial structure could be inferred.
Authorities have also confirmed that Nancy’s pacemaker — capable of syncing with her iPhone and Apple Watch — stopped transmitting data at approximately 2:30 a.m. on the morning of her disappearance. Specialized equipment was installed on a sheriff’s helicopter to attempt to detect radio-frequency signals associated with the device. Officials have not disclosed whether those efforts produced actionable results.
Additional Context and Public Clarifications
Earlier scanner traffic incorrectly linked the SWAT operation to the residence of County Attorney Baird Greene. The Sheriff’s Office later clarified that the targeted residence was a different nearby property.
Earlier in the week, Tucson resident Carlos Palazuelos was detained but later released without charges after investigators determined he was not connected to the case.
The FBI has increased the reward for information leading to an arrest in the disappearance to $100,000.
Several ransom-style communications demanding up to $6 million have reportedly been sent to media outlets; however, law enforcement has not verified their authenticity. Deadlines referenced in those communications have passed without confirmation of legitimacy.
Ongoing Investigation
Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance has drawn national attention, in part because she is the mother of Savannah Guthrie, co-anchor of NBC’s Today show. Family members have described the situation as emotionally devastating.
Authorities emphasize that the investigation remains active and that no conclusions regarding motive or direct involvement of any specific individual have been publicly confirmed. Both local and federal agencies continue to coordinate investigative and forensic efforts.
Officials have stated they will release additional information when appropriate, while withholding certain details to preserve the integrity of the investigation.
The search for Nancy Guthrie remains ongoing.
