Name withheld by police

How they died

Suicide

A sheriff's deputy was called on a welfare concern. A man, who was inside his trailer, had been involved in a recent dispute with family members. A relative contacted sheriff's deputies after not being able to contact the man. The relative informed deputies that the man had weapons inside his home. When a sheriff's deputy came to the home, he was able to contact the man via phone and tried to lure the man out of the home. Deputies tear-gassed the mobile home in a final effort to draw the man out of the home. When officers observed no response, a SWAT team entered the home and discovered the man was deceased, having suffered a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
