The deputy had responded to the 911 call the night of the Fourth of July from a woman who was screaming and crying and said, "I need the police." Responding deputies found that the woman had been assaulted. She pointed to the man who sat down on the back porch holding a knife. The sheriff's office says he apparently had self-inflicted wounds on his arms. The 59-year-old man was shot by one deputy who is now on administrative leave for the investigation. There will be an inquest. Sgt. John Urquhart says deputies had not been called before to the couple's home. READER COMMENTS Be the first to comment.
