Deadly force

Anderson County Deputies responded to a call of a person who used his car to push an off-road car out of the road. He continued on to the house. He shot several times at his neighbor's home. Nobody was in the home at the time the shots were fired. Once deputies arrived on scene, state police said the man was standing in front of his home with a rifle in his hand and allegedly pointed it at deputies before he was shot and killed.
