Police say the shooting happened after officers were called for reports of a domestic dispute and later found a man and woman in a vehicle believed to have been involved in the dispute. Police say the woman exited the vehicle and told officers the man, later identified as Scott, had threatened to kill her with a handgun. Police said Scott refused to comply with officers’ commands before an officer shot him.
