“Two Tuscola County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a home on VanGeisen Road near Reese Road in Gilford Township of Tuscola County at around 4:13pm today. A family member had called and said they had stopped at the house and confronted their father who stated the mother was dead on the floor.

The family member left the house and called 911. Deputies arrived along with a Caro City Officer and set up a perimeter around the house.

A male subject came out of the house and started firing a weapon at the officers. The officers returned fire and the subject was killed. 

One deputy was slightly injured when the subject fired at the officers, and was later treated and released at a Saginaw Hospital.

The scene was turned over to the Michigan State Police . This information is very preliminary and no further information will be released today.”
