Wall Street firm banker found dead in apartment complex

The death of a 28-year-old Jefferies Group investment banker in Dallas, Texas, has prompted a police investigation into the “unexplained death.”

The body of McIntosh, who was assigned to the firm’s team covering technology, media and telecommunications companies, was found in a residential apartment building on Jan. 27, according to records from the Dallas County Medical Examiner’s office. It was not immediately clear whether the apartment was McIntosh’s.

“Based on the date, approximate time and location, this incident is being investigated as an unexplained death,” Dallas police officer Michael Dennis, a public information officer for the department, told Fox News Digital.

Medical documents reviewed by Fox News Digital showed that McIntosh was found around 11 a.m. at the Dallas apartment complex. The cause of death is still not known.

Jefferies Group CEO Richard Handler, along with the firm’s president Brian Friedman, confirmed McIntosh’s death in a message sent to employees Tuesday. 

“It is with tremendous sadness that we report we learned yesterday that Carter McIntosh, one of our talented associates in Dallas, has passed away,” a copy of the memo obtained by Business Insider said. “Our most sincere condolences go out to his family, friends, and colleagues. We are in touch with Carter’s family, who know we stand ready to support them in any way we can.”

Prior to joining Jefferies, McIntosh worked as an analyst for multiple companies, including Goldman Sachs, beginning in August 2018, according to his LinkedIn profile. He graduated from Seton Hall University, a private Catholic college in New Jersey, in 2018 with a bachelor’s degree in finance.

McIntosh was at least the third young banker to die in the last 12 months.

His death came just a couple of weeks after Leo Lukenas, 35, who was in the bank’s investment banking group in New York City, died of an acute coronary artery thrombus, according to the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. 

Lukenas had been working more than 100 hours a week and wanted to leave his job at the time of his death, a recruiter who had talked to him about a new job told Reuters. 

The three deaths have brought into focus the grueling hours that bank workers are known for putting in, but none of their deaths has been officially linked to working long hours.

Suspects outstanding after pursuit through downtown Los Angeles 

The Los Angeles Police Department is looking for four suspects who fled from a vehicle after a pursuit. 

According to an LAPD spokesperson, officers began pursuing a gold Lexus for possible DUI around 1:30 a.m. Sunday near the intersection of La Brea Avenue and Stocker Street.   

While being chased, the car drove east on the 10 Freeway and eventually the 110 Freeway before getting off at Stadium Drive, the spokesperson said. 

After exiting the 110, police lost sight of the vehicle and called off the pursuit; however, it was found abandoned near 5th Street and Grand Avenue after the suspects fled the area on foot.

The four suspects were last seen near the upscale Biltmore hotel, police said. Video from the scene obtained by KTLA shows that the front airbags of the Lexus had deployed.

North Las Vegas Police officer killed in shootout with suspect, honored with procession

The North Las Vegas Police Department is mourning the loss of one of its own after a shootout that also left a male suspect dead. 

On Wednesday, police identified the fallen officer as 46-year-old Jason Roscow, whose career with the department spans 17 years.

“It is with profound sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the loss of one of our own, who was killed in the line of duty today,” the department posted to Facebook late Tuesday night. “This tragic loss is a solemn reminder of the dedication and bravery of those who serve and protect our community.”

The situation unfolded around 2:13 p.m., when officers received a report of a person pointing a gun at another person, according to a press release.

The suspect ignored responding officers’ commands and took off running, police said. The armed suspect was located by an officer who ordered him to show his hands, but, instead, “an exchange of gunfire ensued,” the release stated.

Police said the officer, later identified as Roscow, “was struck multiple times during the exchange but was able to return fire, striking the subject.”

Roscow and the suspect were taken to a hospital, where they both died. Officers from multiple law enforcement agencies gathered outside the hospital, and a procession was held while Roscow’s body was being taken to the Clark County coroner’s office.

In a release on Wednesday, police said Roscow’s commitment to public safety led him to the Traffic Division in 2013. After serving in that role for 11 years, he returned to Patrol Operations in February 2024.

While serving in the traffic division, though, he was recognized with the Exemplary Service Award.

“Officer Roscow was more than a colleague, he was a friend, a mentor and a valued member of our law enforcement family. His sacrifice will never be forgotten and his legacy of service and bravery will continue to inspire us all,” the statement from the department read. “We ask for patience and respect for the officer’s family, friends and colleagues as we grieve this tremendous loss. Our department is working closely with his loved ones to provide the support they need during this difficult time.”

Police have not identified the suspect in the shooting, which marks the first officer-involved shooting this year for the North Las Vegas Police Department.
