NC doctor charged after interstate road-rage shooting injures two sisters

A North Carolina emergency physician, Dr. Richard Arriviello, 61, is jailed after allegedly firing into a moving Jeep on I-77 near the NC–Virginia line, injuring two sisters aged 12 and 20. He fled the scene and was arrested about 15 miles away; he faces multiple felony charges including malicious shooting into an occupied vehicle, malicious bodily harm with intent to maim, and using a firearm while committing a felony. The Jeep’s driver was cited for reckless driving. The victims’ injuries were non-life-threatening, Arriviello has been licensed since 2010 and owns Family Urgent Care in Monroe, and he’s due in court Sept. 29; it’s unclear if a firearm was recovered.

Florida surgeon charged with manslaughter after wrong-organ removal during splenectomy

A Florida doctor, Dr. Thomas Shaknovsky, is charged with second-degree manslaughter after allegedly removing the liver instead of the spleen during a scheduled laparoscopic splenectomy, causing the patient’s death on the operating table. A Walton County grand jury found probable cause for the charge; Shaknovsky is jailed awaiting his first court appearance and faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted. The case follows prior licensure suspensions in Florida, Alabama and New York and accusations of other malpractice, including removal of parts of the pancreas and intestine in separate procedures.

Hawaii doctor found guilty of attempted manslaughter in cliffside assault on wife

A Maui-based anesthesiologist, Gerhardt Konig, was found guilty of attempted manslaughter (extreme mental or emotional disturbance) for a March 2025 attack on his wife during a cliffside hike in Honolulu. Prosecutors say he tried to stab her with a syringe and hit her with a rock to render her unconscious and push her off the cliff; she survived thanks to passing hikers and testified at a three-week trial. Konig claimed self-defense, saying his wife grabbed him and hit him first. The jury convicted on the lesser charge, which carries up to 20 years in prison; his sentencing will follow.
