Police Capt. Patrick Neville said Costco security personnel called police at 12:47 p.m. after the man began destroying merchandise in the store. After the call, store security noticed the man had a gun and began to evacuate the business, Neville said.
The officers who fired will be placed on paid administrative leave during an investigation, which is standard procedure in officer-involved shootings.
