They shot this guy with bean bag rounds first but that did not work. The toxicology details might be interesting.
A few years ago in Odessa-—20 odd miles west-— a couple in their fifties had another fight and wife called the cops about her darling hubby who was combining his cancer and pain drugs with liquor. Three street cops got there and this guy White killed all three of them with a shotgun.
The Midland Sheriff office had their negotiator dude murdered in October and two other counties in this area had a car thief kill a deputy and a sex pervert kill a deputy so I reckon they are getting kind of worried sometimes.
Well, it makes sense that the police would be worried, especially when everything is put into that perspective.
With all of the additional details given on this thread now, I’d say this particular case is a tough one to call.
