Deputies were patrolling in the Pittsburg area due to complaints of all-terrain vehicles driving erratically and that the ATV's were possibly being used to commit burglaries and theft. After deputies observed Sayven Rowland operating an ATV illegally on a county road, they attempted to stop him, but he reportedly fled. After the man crashed, he brandished a firearm, and a deputy reportedly unsuccessfully used a less lethal pepper gun on the man before another deputy shot and killed him.
