OKALOOSA COUNTY, Fla. (WKRG) — A man was killed early Monday morning after he allegedly shot at deputies, according to an Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office Facebook post.
OCSO deputies were called to a townhome in the Wright rea around 6:30 a.m. Monday for a report of trespassing in progress. The deputies encountered the male trespasser inside the home.
The man then allegedly fired “at least one shot at a deputy,” which led to the deputy returning fire. The suspect died on the scene.
The deputies involved will be placed on administrative leave with pay while the shooting is being investigated.
