Deputies arrived on scene and made contact with the male subject in the front yard of the residence. Upon making contact with the male subject, deputies observed a revolver resting in his lap. Deputies communicated with the male subject for almost an hour trying to get him to leave the revolver on the bench where he was sitting and get mental health assistance. After over an hour of speaking with the subject, he quickly reached for the pistol. Believing their lives were in danger at that time, both deputies fired and struck the male. When the male was down, the deputies administered life saving measures but were not successful in bringing him back to life. Texas Rangers were then called and conducted an investigation.
