Date of the incident: 6/8/2017
Roland, Sequoyah, OK
The sheriff's office received a call of a possible suicidal man that had barricaded himself inside a residence. When deputies and Oklahoma Highway patrol troopers arrived, Paul Mashburn, 58, was inside. Mashburn yelled out the window that he had guns and gasoline and he would shoot any officers that came near the house. The Cherokee Nation SWAT team negotiated with Mashburn for several hours. Mashburn began to break out windows and threaten officers; he then started a fire inside the residence and continued breaking out windows. He eventually pointed a pistol at officers and was shot and killed.
