In Loving Memory of Inol Toussaint and Euster Toussaint 🕊️

It is with profound sorrow and heavy hearts that the community of Waxhaw mourns the tragic loss of Euster Toussaint and Inol Toussaint, whose lives ended in a devastating act of domestic violence on Thursday, March 12, 2026. The shocking incident has left family, friends, and neighbors grappling with grief and searching for answers in the wake of such a heartbreaking tragedy.

According to authorities, Waxhaw Police responded to a call around 4:15 p.m. at a home along Pescott Glen Park, just off Waxhaw-Marvin Road. Upon arrival, officers discovered 49-year-old Inol Toussaint deceased in the backyard from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Inside the home, his wife, Euster Toussaint, was found dead upstairs. Investigators believe that preliminary evidence indicates Inol took the life of his wife before ending his own life.

The State Bureau of Investigation was called in to assist with the case. Authorities have stated that, based on their findings, this appears to be an isolated incident, with no danger to the broader community. While the circumstances are tragic, they also serve as a sobering reminder of the devastating impact of domestic violence.

Police Chief Dexter Wilson shared a heartfelt statement acknowledging the pain caused by this event, urging the community to keep the victims’ families and loved ones in their thoughts. “We are heartbroken by this tragic act of domestic violence that has deeply impacted our community. We ask everyone to keep the victim’s family and loved ones involved in your thoughts during this incredibly difficult time,” he said. Chief Wilson also emphasized the importance of seeking help, encouraging those experiencing domestic violence to reach out for support and utilize available resources.

Euster Toussaint and Inol Toussaint leave behind a legacy that is now remembered through the love and memories shared with family, friends, and the community. Euster, as a wife and member of her family, was cherished by those around her, and her loss leaves a void that will be felt for years to come.
