Deputies were dispatched around 12:20 p.m. for a domestic dispute between two family members. When deputies arrived, they found one person bloodied. James Collins barricaded himself inside the home. About 1 a.m., Collins walked out of the house holding a rifle with a flashlight taped to it, and pointed the weapon in the general direction of deputies surrounding the house. A deputy shot and killed Collins.
