Two police officers responded to a domestic violence call and went to Reams' home. A woman was heard screaming inside and struggling with a male suspect. Police says Reams shouted if officers went inside, he would kill her. After a few seconds, the police couldn't hear the woman anymore. Once the officers broke into the home, an officer fired four rounds and killed Reams who died on the scene. The woman was found stabbed to death.
