TWIN FALLS — A police pursuit that ended with gunshots and one man dead on April 2 blocked Addison Avenue West for several hours while law enforcement investigated.

The victim was identified by the Twin Falls County Coroner’s Office on Tuesday night as Rodney Dean Bodley, 61, of Twin Falls.

Three Twin Falls Police Department officers went to a residence on Addison Avenue West shortly after 1 p.m. April 2, Lt. Terry Thueson said. The officers arrived to serve an arrest warrant related to a driving under the influence charge, he said.

Bodley led police on a short pursuit down Addison Avenue West. The pursuit ended in the 100 block of Addison Avenue West, where his vehicle was forced to stop in traffic. The vehicle stopped in the middle of the road and officers called out over the radio that shots were fired, Thueson said.

“At the end of the pursuit, there were some shots fired and the driver of the vehicle that was being pursued is deceased,” Thueson told the Times-News.

Police do not believe any officers fired their weapons, he said. Bodley was pronounced dead on scene.
