One of Joseph Loughery's relatives, who had earlier told Dublin police he was missing, called police requesting a welfare check, police said. Auburn police officers approached Loughery, found sitting in his truck in the parking lot of a gas station around 1:15 p.m. He was holding a sawed-off .22-caliber rifle and moving his arms while officers ordered him to disarm. When he failed to comply, police shot and killed him.
