Deputies arrived, located the male holding the shotgun, and ordered him to drop it. The male raised the shotgun and pointed it at a deputy. The male refused numerous commands to drop the weapon and retreated to his residence. SWAT personnel arrived and negotiators made contact with the male. The male refused to end the incident peacefully and ended communication. The male continually exited and entered his residence with the shotgun, and an arrest warrant was filed. On November 7, 2021, the male exited the residence and walked towards a wood line on the edge of the property. SWAT personnel moved into the driveway, and the male returned towards the residence. A SWAT member fired a less lethal device and struck the male in an attempt to get the male to drop the shotgun. As the male regained his balance, he raised the shotgun and pointed it in the direction of SWAT members. SWAT members fired their rifles towards the male, striking him. SWAT members rendered first aid and paramedics arrived, determining the male had no signs of life. Custodial Death Report :: Page 6 of 6
