How they died

Deadly force

Deputies responded to a call about a domestic violence situation possibly involving gunfire around 7 p.m., police said. When deputies arrived, they saw a man through the front door "with what appeared to be a gun in his waistband." He came out onto the front porch and refused to follow the deputies' commands. Deputies allegedly used a Taser to try to incapacitate the man. He allegedly threatened officers with the gun and was shot and killed.
