Michigan deputy fatally shoots man allegedly threatening to kill people, himself

A 28-year-old man who allegedly threatened to kill himself and other people was fatally shot by a Michigan deputy. No one else was injured.

A man was fatally shot by a western Michigan sheriff’s deputy after officers were called about an armed man threatening to kill himself and other people, officials said.

Ottawa County deputies found the 28-year-old man Saturday night near the community of Jenison and a deputy shot him, the sheriff’s department said without releasing any information what prompted the deputy’s action or how many shots were fired.

The wounded man was pronounced dead at the scene a few miles southwest of Grand Rapids. No one else was injured in the confrontation, the department said.

The identities of the man who died and the deputy were not immediately released.
