A security guard observed the complainant down and motionless in the garage and the suspect sitting in the driver’s seat of a vehicle next to the complainant. The security guard approached the suspect to investigate, and the suspect produced a firearm. The security guard retreated to cover and then called 911. Uniformed HPD officers arrived to find a male lying on the ground motionless and the suspect standing over him with an AR pistol. The officers gave the suspect multiple commands over several minutes to drop the Custodial Death Report :: Page 6 of 7 --- PAGE BREAK --- weapon, but the suspect refused. After many attempts to get the suspect to drop the weapon, the suspect raised the weapon to point it at the officers. Five officers then discharged their firearms and struck the suspect. The Houston Fire Department was requested for emergency medical aid, but both men were ultimately pronounced deceased on scene. Custodial Death Report :: Page 7 of 7
