Charles Raymond, 47, of Imlay City, was pronounced dead at the shooting scene in Brown City, Michigan. State Police said in a statement on Twitter posted Wednesday evening that indicated the wounded deputy remained in stable condition.
State police said the agency’s preliminary findings indicate that at about 9:20 a.m. Wednesday a homeowner allowed Lapeer County deputies to check the premises for Raymond, who was wanted on a felony criminal sexual conduct warrant.
As a door to a detached outbuilding was opened, police said Raymond fired on the deputies, striking one of them multiple times, while a second deputy returned fire, striking Raymond.
The wounded deputy was hospitalized in stable condition. Police said the second deputy was not shot but he was being treated at a hospital for injuries that weren’t considered life-threatening.
