Deputies responded to a home around 1 p.m. on a reported domestic situation. When deputies arrived, they found a woman outside with injuries consistent with strangulation and battery. Troy Willey was inside the home at the time. Officers were told that he was probably armed. Police were in contact with Willey for several hours, but he didn’t leave. Around 5:30 p.m., police went into the home and encountered Willey, who they say was armed with a revolver. They ordered him to drop the gun, and he failed to comply, so officers shot and killed him.
