Mark Haas was shot and killed after he allegedly stormed out of his home and fired at officers during a standoff that lasted more than three hours. The standoff started when a deputy responded to a fight and reportedly found Haas initially armed with a pipe. Haas then went inside the mobile home, returned with a shotgun and began firing it. The deputy called for reinforcements from the Iberia Parish SWAT team, then set up a perimeter around the residence. Haas allegedly fired 6 or 7 shots at deputies and state police officers, who were also on scene. Deputies shot Haas after he reportedly came out of the trailer firing at officers. Deputies Brett Broussard, Jeff Schmidt, Paul Venable, Ben LaSalle and Wade Bergeron were involved in the shooting.
