How they died
Deadly force
After reportedly shooting at law enforcement and committing crimes in multiple Texas counties, Vaughn took members of his family hostage at a residence in Friona. Lubbock, Department of Public Safety and Amarillo SWAT teams responded, as local peace officers had insufficient resources. Seventeen hours later, Vaughn shot at police. Lubbock SWAT Officer Scott Weems shot Vaughn once, killing him. Vaughn's hostages were not harmed. Texas Rangers, including Ranger Dusty McCord, investigated the shooting.
