Around 4:30 a.m., officers responding to the call were told that Jerry Reeves was "armed with a long gun, holding three hostages," police said. Officers set up a perimeter around the residence and the on-duty hostage negotiation team established communication with the suspect in an attempt to persuade him to disarm himself and come outside, officials said. Reeves then came out with the long gun, and officers shot and killed him when he didn't drop it.
