Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement.
On August 21, 2021, Rankin County deputies were dispatched to Garrett Road in Florence for a medical call. Before arriving on scene, a caller from the scene indicated that the call was a domestic disturbance. When deputies arrived on scene they learned that the suspect, SHANNON TREVOR MCKINLEY, had a felony warrant for domestic violence. The suspect was discovered in the attic of the residence and refused multiple commands to come out. MCKINLEY then attempted to climb down and flee deputies. MCKINLEY then displayed a handgun and fired at the deputies who then returned fire, striking the suspect. The suspect was pronounced deceased at the scene. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigations was called to the scene and is currently investigating the incident. McKinley was a 28 year old male from Florence.

Body cams would relieve all doubts that this was a justifiable shooting by police. Sorry, but Bryan Bailey's word means jack shit.
Why do people think they can gun fight with law enforcement? Sounds like a classic case of play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I’m sure whoever he has been terrorizing is relieved. Win, win.
Sounds a lot like an *altercation* leading to a *succumbing*.
Never climb down out of an attic and engage multiple LEO in a handgun exchange.
I'm sure he was a nice guy, when sober, but he's caused a lifetime of grief for several families and they have my enduring sympathy.
Suicide by cops. As the previous post said he has caused his family grief for years. Worked with his dad for several years and he’s a great guy and one hell of a firefighter. Hate it for everyone involved including the deputies.
Why do people think they can gun fight with law enforcement?
Get on Youtube and check out Polk County (Fla.) Sheriff Grady Judd.
He was asked once why deputies shot a violent thug 83 times in a gunfight. He said, "Because we ran out of ammunition."
Better him dead than a law enforcement officer.
Most times in a crisis situation rational thinking takes a back seat. Why would someone face several LEOs with a hand gun and think the outcome would be a win win for everyone is beyond reason. Basically sometimes stupid is as stupid does.
Why would the Rankin SO , one of the top tax payer funded SO s in the State not have bodycams? 🤔 This and the last couple of incidents would be open and shut had they had them.
8:41
You’re assuming they don’t?
8:41...Because they are not required? Body cams bring lawyers in white socks out of the woodwork.
'Worked with his dad for several years and he’s a great guy and one hell of a firefighter.'
Just to clarify...are you talking about the dad or the son?
Was it his baby Mama's house? I know he has one or two boys.
Heeeeere’s your sign….
What is it with dudes down around Florence hiding out in the attic of a house? This is at least the second time we've heard this in recent memory. Was it the same guy that went "missing" a while back? Loud ass pick up trucks with mossy oak seat covers dudes wearing mossy oak camo everyday....you'd think they'd hide in the woods, but no, in a damn attic when it's 97 degrees outside? Are they hiding in the attic in a Pink Panther costume for camo with the insulation?
And wasn't the other one a fireman too?
