North Andover, Massachusetts police officer Kelsey Fitzsimmons is charged with charges of armed assault with intent to murder and two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon. Fitzsimmons' fiance had filed a restraining order against her fearing for the safety of their child. Prosecutors allege that when North Andover police officers arrived at her home on June 30, 2025 to serve the restraining order, Fitzsimmons told them her weapons were stored safely in the basement. But they say that Fitzsimmons, who was off duty at the time, then reached for her service weapon, pointed the gun at them and pulled the trigger. Prosecutors said there was no round, so the gun clicked but did not fire. When Fitzsimmons attempted to load a round into the chamber, an officer said he yelled, Don't do it, don't do it. The officer then fired once and missed before firing a second time and hitting Fitzsimmons in the chest. Fitzsimmons' defense attorneys say she was struggling with postpartum depression and that Fitzsimmons never pointed the gun at her fellow officer and never made misleading statements about where her weapons were stored in the home.
