How they died
Deadly force
Two deputies shot Charles E. Simmons after he allegedly pointed a gun at them. The deputies had responded to a domestic disturbance at Simmons' cousin's residence south of Stover at about 5:30 p.m. The deputies asked Simmons to show his hands, but he reportedly pointed a gun at them instead. The deputies then shot Simmons, who died at the scene. According to Sheriff Jim Petty, this was the first time Morgan county deputies had shot and killed someone.
