In the early hours of December 15, 2025, Howell County deputies were called to a residence after receiving reports that someone was attempting to break into a home. When law enforcement arrived, they saw two men near the property. It was reported that one fled into the surrounding woods, while the other got into a dark SUV. Attempts to communicate with him failed, and deputies noticed him repeatedly reaching into his waistband and pockets, raising concerns that he could have a weapon.

The deputies tried multiple measures to gain control of the situation.
