Higgins was released from prison in Dec. 2013 after a 12-year stint. Police came to arrest him at his trailer for violating parole six months later. Higgins, who was armed, escaped through a secret hatch but encountered two officers in the woods. He fired two shots at the officers and they returned fire, killing him. Higgins had often stated he would die in a police shootout before going back to prison.
