How they died
Suicide
A man reportedly called 911 early in the morning, threatening to shoot himself. When deputies arrived, they found the man sitting on a chair outside his home with a gun. According to a police report, the man spoke to officers but would not lay down his gun or comply with orders to keep his hands in plain sight. When police tried to negotiate with him, he declined to comply and tried to go inside his house. Deputies then fired "a less-lethal direct impact round" in an attempt to keep the man outside, but the projectile did not incapacitate him, and he shot and killed himself.
