At Rest

Deadly force
Police received a call that Muse was armed and threatening his wife and three children. By the time they arrived, his family had escaped and Muse, armed with a shotgun, had barricaded himself in the house. Deputies attempted to get Muse to surrender, but he refused. When a deputy approached the front of the house, Muse shot at him and the deputy fired back, killing Muse. Muse's wife said her husband was intoxicated.
