6) BOTH rancher and deputies fire weapons (per news clip that logcutter put up);
7) rancher killed;
8) investigation ongoing.

That's it; that's all we know.

There was no "SWAT team" involved. There was no Federal agency involved. There were two county deputies and a rancher.


The rancher looked white...but the photo's need to be verified.
Were either of the deputies black?
What about the bull?

Once colors are confirmed we can throw everything else out and conjuncture correctly. Color pending this could turn into a federal investigation.
