  • Chad Aaron Haworth, 54, of Hudson, was charged Thursday with one count each of first-degree homicide, mayhem with the use of a dangerous weapon and aggravated battery.

A 38-year-old man named Justin A. Kopmeyer has been charged with first-degree intentional homicide following a standoff and death investigation in Hudson, Wisconsin. The incident began when Kopmeyer barricaded himself inside a home on 13th Street, leading to a standoff with law enforcement. After several hours, authorities entered the home and discovered Kopmeyer with a self-inflicted gunshot wound and the body of a 37-year-old woman, who was later identified as his wife, Autumn. The criminal complaint alleges that Kopmeyer shot his wife before turning the gun on himself. He is currently hospitalized in stable condition and will be held on a $1 million cash bond once released. The community and local authorities are deeply affected by this tragic event.
