A woman also suffered injuries that were not considered life-threatening, according to a statement from the sheriff’s office. No deputies were shot or injured.
Authorities were dispatched to the 200 block of Manchester Lane at 1:22 a.m. to investigate a report of domestic violence, officials said.
“Upon their arrival, the (man) opened fire on the deputies and an adult female on scene,” according to the statement. “Deputies returned fire, striking the (man).”
The man, whose name and age had not been released Tuesday morning, was pronounced dead at the scene, deputies said.
