Officers were led to the home after getting a call from the couple’s son that was out-of-state, Texas deputies said.

Due to the man not listening to the commands, and seeing the wife being held at gunpoint, a deputy shot the man to save the woman. The man was killed, TCSO said. No one else was injured in the shooting.

After the suspect refused to put his gun down, a deputy shot him where he died on the scene, according to authorities.
