Fred “Bo” Bowman Trundle

Deadly force

Deputies had responded to a home several times earlier the previous day to serve a felony probation warrant on Fred Trundle. Deputies arrived at approximately 11:15 p.m. and attempted to arrest Trundle. Trundle retreated from the backyard inside. Deputies reportedly used a Taser in order to arrest him, but it was not effective. Trundle came out of a bedroom with a shotgun, threatening to shoot the deputies. Deputies retreated. At approximately 11:57 p.m., Trundle came out of the residence onto the front porch. Trundle allegedly pointed the shotgun at the nearest deputy. One deputy fired multiple times, killing Trundle.
