Daniel Calala

How they died

Deadly force

Police were notified at approximately 4:10 p.m. to be on the lookout for a possibly suicidal Huron County resident. They found a other matching a provided description and began talking with Daniel Calala, who brandished two firearms. Deputies took cover and began negotiating with him, while he allegedly threatened to shoot them. Calala refused to put down the guns and surrender, and he began driving west and traveled about a mile before turning his other around and driving toward the deputies. Calala stopped his other and made allegedly threatening movements. After two hours an officer shot and killed Calala.
