Upon arrival, officers found Thomas outside wearing a tactical vest and holding a shotgun, ignoring repeated commands to drop the weapon. A dramatic explosion followed, then Thomas emerged armed and defiant — prompting officers to fire. He was taken into custody in critical but stable condition. Inside, two family members were found dead, and a fire broke out, forcing nearby residents to evacuate. Authorities are still investigating the full details and cause of death for the victims.
