How they died
Deadly force
About 9:30 a.m., deputies responded to a fire department report that a 62-year-old man armed with a knife was suicidal and had overdosed on prescription pills. They found him inside a room with the woman who called 911. Deputies ordered the man to drop the knife, but he failed to do so and allegedly advanced on the deputies. Police reportedly tried to incapacitate him with a Taser, but that was ineffective. He continued to advance, and deputies shot and killed him.
